Thach Avenue in Auburn) is 7:30; advance tickets are just $20 and can be found at Spicers Music, Ross House Coffee, and online at sundillaconcerts.com. Admission at the door will be $25. Students can pay just $15 at the door. Free coffee, tea, water and food will be available, and the audience is welcome to bring their own favorite food or beverage.Since first breaking into the music scene almost 20 years ago, Griffin House has been considered a rising star, which might be one reason that Rising Star is the title of one of his most recent albums, and not one of the dozen or so that preceded it. And part of his career definitely fits the definition: he had been in Nashville just a few months when he signed a record deal, saw his first album lauded by critics, was noted on national TV as one of the best emerging songwriters, and found himself touring with John Mellencamp and The Cranberries, and meeting the likes of Bruce Springsteen and Willie Nelson. Some might consider that a path to overnight success, but Ive been a rising star for the past 15 years House jokes, Its a slow rise.The Ohio native has released more than a dozen albums, toured with John Mellencamp and The Cranberries, has enjoyed plenty of success as national headliner for over a decade, and earned a great deal of respect as a well-known performer and singer-songwriter. And he shows no signs of slowing down. Maybe American Songwriter says it best: If you are looking to be blown away by raw talent, then look no further than Griffin House.
