{"product_id":"griffin-patty-crown-of-roses","title":"Griffin, Patty - Crown Of Roses","description":"Crown of Roses' is a deeply personal and introspective work that explores themes of identity, nature, family, and womanhood. Emerging from a creative drought during the pandemic, Griffin found herself reevaluating the stories she’d long told herself. The result is an eight-track collection that is both sparse and emotionally rich, blending folk, Americana, and gospel blues.\n\nThe album features contributions from trusted bandmates, David Pulkingham and Michael Longoria, and a haunting vocal cameo from Robert Plant. Griffin's vocal approach changed after cancer treatment, leading her to embrace a softer, more intimate style that reflects the vulnerability and strength woven through the songs.\n\nMuch of 'Crown of Roses' is shaped by Griffin’s relationship with her late mother, whose love of music and nature left a lasting imprint. Songs like 'Born in a Cage' and 'Way Up to the Sky' echo her mother’s observations of a vanishing natural world and Griffin’s own reckoning with mortality and legacy.\n\nGriffin also confronts her past efforts to understand and please men, ultimately shifting her creative focus toward women’s experiences. She calls this her first album primarily concerned with women’s stories, signaling a liberating perspective change. Reflecting on her artistic journey, Griffin shares, “The older you get, you just get sick of yourself staying stuck.”\n\nWith 'Crown of Roses', Griffin offers a record that’s both grounded and transcendent—one that invites listeners to release old narratives, embrace new truths, and stay truly alive while they’re here.","brand":"Pgm","offers":[{"title":"Limited Turquoise LP","offer_id":50156520866070,"sku":"RMX-47400","price":22.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cd","offer_id":50156521357590,"sku":"RMX-47401","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7750\/2998\/files\/f98fab4c3fadbbd62c584404f3a889ce.jpg?v=1750468627","url":"https:\/\/resident-music-uk.myshopify.com\/products\/griffin-patty-crown-of-roses","provider":"Resident Music UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
