Fifth Phoenix

Along with his blues/rock solo work, Griffin is also the lead singer of his contemporary rock band, Fifth Phoenix. Emerging with their 2019 victory at the Richardson Wildflower Music and Arts Festival Battle of the Bands, Fifth Phoenix broke through with a revitalized and melodic version of high octane, blues driven rock and roll. Throughout the rest of 2019, the young band has performed at several venues in Dallas including Trees, Guitars and Growlers, and Gas Monkey Live. Fifth Phoenix's live shows are aggressive and memorable. You'll hear pop hits lined up next to heavy rock songs. The band features Griffin Holtby on vocals, Colin Katz on guitar, Jackson Angarola on bass, and Kyle Gershon on drums.
