GRANT-LEE PHILLIPS
Australian Tour October 2004
With his new album Virginia Creeper Grant-Lee Phillips woven yet another gorgeous pop record, full of his trademark melodies, dream-like lyrics, & some flourishes that harkens back to the glory days of Grant-Lee Buffalo.
To celebrate it’s local release Grant-Lee Phillips returned to tour the east coast of Australia in October, this time bringing his three piece band.

“Currently moonlighting from his Grant Lee Buffalo alias, California’s Grant-Lee Phillips is a songsmith to be cherished.” – NME
“Effortless-sounding near genius…..a folk-country album that gives & gives.” – Mojo **** (4 stars)
