The Profile

American singer-songwriter from Stockton, California, and former frontman of Grant Lee Buffalo. Known for a warm baritone and literate, roots-leaning songwriting, he’s built a steady solo catalog on labels including Yep Roc Records.

Born in Stockton, California in 1963; early work with Shiva Burlesque; fronted Grant Lee Buffalo (albums Fuzzy and Mighty Joe Moon) and opened R.E.M.’s Monster tour. Widdershins (Yep Roc) was recorded in four days at Nashville’s Sound Emporium with Jerry Roe and Lex Price. Nineteeneighties features eleven acoustically inclined covers from 1980s New Wave and related artists.

DeBaser’s reviews frame Grant-Lee Phillips as a consistently strong American singer-songwriter with roots in Grant Lee Buffalo. Little Moon blends folk and country with tender orchestration, while Widdershins leans electric with sharp social themes and quick, Nashville-cut sessions. Nineteeneighties reimagines New Wave staples in intimate acoustic colors. Walking in the Green Corn inspires road-trip reveries and quiet devotion.
