NEW ALBUM

First Impressions

Out Now!

Jazz pianist and composer Peyton Griffin releases his debut album, “First Impressions,”

The eight-track collection offers a vivid introduction to Griffin's musical identity, pairing three original compositions with five imaginative interpretations of works that have shaped him as an artist.

"This album truly is a first impression of who I am as a musical artist. Every song reflects my artistic identity as a performer and composer, while telling a larger story about who I am as a person. The album uses music as its language so universally, everyone can understand me.”

"What stands out most is the emotional clarity of the recording. Griffin captures the mixture of romance, change, longing, and quiet optimism that defines the season. The music moves naturally between brightness and introspection while always maintaining its sense of direction."

"Peyton paints a musical portrait of the beauty and contrast of an “Autumn in New York” with his newest single. Peyton’s arrangement symbolizes the changes of autumn through key changes and subtle embellishments of the melody that highlight the contrast and romance of autumn."

Peyton Griffin is a 22 year old Jazz pianist and composer from Seattle, Washington. He earned his bachelors in Jazz composition and performance from Berklee College of Music. Griffin's biggest inspirations are Bill Evans and Vince Guaraldi. He uses Jazz as his ultimate form of creative expression, allowing the music to tell his stories and express his voice.
