Allen Griffin is a Florida style duo of vocalist bassist Michael Allen and vocalist guitarist Earl Griffin. We play music the old-fashioned way with real instruments, real voices, real emotion and real people. Really! No drum machines, no computers, no trickery, and no shenanigans. OK, maybe some shenanigans.
Blending a mix of country, trailer park, classic rock, pop rock, Buck shot, Copenhagen and bubble gum with just a hint of intelligence and a touch of sarcasm.
The Allen Griffin style is molded after their heroes “The Smothers Brothers” who were excellent musicians as well as great entertainers.
