Ovation TV | Patty Griffin: Live from the Artists Den

Uploaded by: OvationTV
Video Description:
AT THE ANGEL ORENSANZ FOUNDATION IN NEW YORK
Patty Griffin's new album, Children Running Through, was released on a bitterly cold winter day in New York City that turned into an even colder night, with temperatures dropping to 9 degrees Fahrenheit as devoted fans huddled together outside the Orensanz Foundation for the Arts for a chance to see Griffin perform songs from the album for the first time. Inside, the historic building's neo-gothic arches were lit with the warm glow of candlelight as Griffin stepped into the packed room to play a private Artists Den concert, celebrating her record's release and offering a sneak preview of her extensive spring tour. Griffin's crystal-clear voice filled the room with newly penned songs (a handwritten lyrics sheet sat perched on the piano when she took a break from her guitar to play it) as well as Griffin classics, accompanied by new band members and longtime players alike. A special treat on some songs was the addition of legendary keyboardist Ian McLagan (Small Faces, The Rolling Stones) -- who appeared for
this night only -- and a 5-piece string section. At the end of the evening, the lucky audience walked back out into the biting cold braced with the warmth of an unforgettable night.

Umm... yeah. I'd ... ( 4 months ago by murphymj)

Umm... yeah. I'd like to put Dylan's name in the mix. Patty Smith is great, but she's not the best. John Prine and Dylan are probably the two best "living" songwriters, but there are a ton of great songwriters out there.

He plays water polo and wears a Speedo. I simply can't live with that.

I would agree with mikeyirish if that ranking was limited to currently productive song writers. She is still in her peak creative period so each new song is potentially a gem to seek out and discover. I've known Dylan for years and know he is not on the level he was, nor does he care.

Thank you Patty, this is by far your best song!

God Bless you, Patty and your bubble in the kitchen! That must be a magical place because you have created the best music I have ever heard, sung with the voice of an angel! I love, love, love you!

It's easy to love talented people. Why not love those who aren't so obviously worthy of it?

I don't love Patty ... ( 2 months ago by Kazakor)

I don't love Patty because of her talent. I was just attracted to her because of it. I love her because of her kindness and generousity, which comes out in the wonderful lyrics she writes. Her decency is what I love about her. In this world that rewards people for being cruel and crass, a woman like Patty Griffin is a real gem.

No disrespect ... ( 2 months ago by sptfgpn)

No disrespect intended to you or Patty Griffin, but there are many examples of great poets and artists whose work showed empathy and compassion, but who weren't very pleasant in person.

I get you. As an ... ( 2 months ago by Kazakor)

I get you. As an English major, I've come across those people. Plath, Pound, Bukowski. I guess there is just something special about people who can be brilliant artists and generous people at the same time.

I got to meet patty last year after a concert in North Carolina. She is the sweetest, most increadibly humble person you could ever meet. Her music really reflects who she truly is.
