THE HEADLINER

With his hat pulled low and hands cradling a well-worn acoustic guitar, Griffin William Sherry brings stories to life—stories that could easily belong in a dusty old novel, by a campfire, or on the stage of an outdoor summer festival. The Maine-born singer, songwriter, and guitarist delves deep into life’s biggest questions of love and purpose while celebrating the simple magic of small-town living. His raw, powerhouse vocals, stripped-down instrumentation, and honest, eloquent songwriting invite you to pause, listen, and truly savor the moment.

Friday, December 27th and Saturday, December 28th at Portland House of Music
