Sean Griffin is a veteran Northeast rocker who has fronted the Irish punk band The Ruffians for 25 years.

Born into a large family in Danbury, Connecticut, Griffin was steeped in Irish traditional music via his barbershop quartet-singer father and his accordionist/step-dancer mother. But he wasn’t motivated to make music himself until he discovered punk and alternative rock as a teenager; in college, he formed the Brit pop-styled Svelte, which recorded one album in the early 1990s.

The Pogues were a pivotal influence, inspiring Sean to form The Ruffians in 1998, not long after he’d moved to New York. Crossing Irish folk styles with punk and contemporary Brit-pop, the hard-gigging band released three well-received albums and an EP and performed with luminaries like Shane McGowan and the Popes, Black 47, Enter the Haggis, and Gaelic Storm.

By Design is the singer-songwriter duo of Connecticut Multi-instrumentalists Mike Dorrico & Brian Darrow. The duo's work calls back to classic rock royalty such as Hendrix and The Allman Brothers Band with a modern folk voice. By Design writes music the only way they know how: authentically.Highlighting themes of love & loss, By Design brings you an original sound with lyrics that always hit close-to-home.
