Patty Griffin – Born In A Cage
2x GRAMMY® Award-winning artist Patty Griffin has shared “Born In A Cage,” the second song from her new full-length opus, Crown Of Roses.
The album is Griffin’s 11th studio collection and first in over six years. Crown Of Roses will be out on Friday, July 25, via her own PGM Recordings label via Thirty Tigers.
“Born In A Cage” is an atmospheric, western-tinged ballad that contemplates a vanishing world with a beguiling sigh, blending warm fiddle and the warbling of the santur. The song captures what Griffin’s mother was experiencing as her time wound down and the natural beauty outside her window changed.
“At the end, my mom was noticing that the songbirds weren’t showing back up in the spring, and rabbits and all kinds of animals were disappearing,” says Griffin. “Even the coyotes moved into Maine because they lost their habitat. There were all these changes to the delicate balance, and it must’ve been really hard to see.”
