Their sparse pop songs speak of familial bonds, idle daydreams, and waking up slowly on a crisp morning in their home town Canberra.The Burley GriffenForged of the stuff that breaks a mother’s heart, young men never stood so proud and poised. The Burley Griffin are wild yet gentle, and warming like your grandma’s combustion stove. Unabashed and unrelenting, they will take you by the collar and dance you ’til morning’s light.A four piece Australian folk n’ roll band, The Burley Griffin hail from the deeper regions of Canberra. While built firmly on the back of lead vocalist and songwriter Evan Buckley’s early career, in recent times the band has quietly evolved bringing new writing into the fold. Set to record their second studio release early next month, their sincere song writing boasts robust melodies supported by serious talent. Drawing from disparate music backgrounds, their style can be described as folk rock with a bit of alternative country twang thrown in. Their original music flaunts strong lyrical accessibility and time with The Burley Griffin is always a booty-shaking, toe tapping, delightful experience.
