East End-based DJ and Producer Bryan Griffin, Aka GR1FN, has been on a tear the last few summers as a driver of nightlife at East Hampton hot spot Si Si as the resident DJ on Saturday nights. This summer, he’s also popped up at Ketchy Beach, Southampton Social Club, Common Ground East, and will be at Gurney’s Montauk in August.
He began releasing original house music just three months ago and is already at 100k streams on streaming platforms, with some major collaborations on the horizon. “Chasing,” his debut album, is set to release the last week of August.
“‘Chasing’ to me is short for Chasing Sunsets, but it is really representative of whatever you pursue in life. This album is very reflective in nature, and while there are a few leading singles in there, I believe the work will be best consumed as a whole,” said Griffin. “I have produced a limited run of Vinyls and will have some listening events both in the city and out east. The support I’ve received so far on this journey has been incredible. I cannot wait to share this work with the world. It’s very healing in nature. I have some big dance tracks coming, but this work was for those sunset moments, rooftops with friends, sexy gatherings, really the original ethos for where I wanted to go as an artist and DJ, which continues to evolve… but this album is a piece of me.”
