Indie Pop Artist Griffin Winton Delivers Humorous And Honest Single “Grow Ur Own Boyfriend”
Indie pop artist Griffin Winton has delivered his third single of the year, “Grow Ur Own Boyfriend,” following up on his recent songs “Balls Deep” and “Another Cracker at the Crossroads.” The new track, from his upcoming album ‘Best All Around Boy’, is a perfect blend of humor and honesty, starting with a chill, bouncy indie-pop vibe before morphing into something heavier and fuzzier. Over jangly guitars, Winton delivers witty and unusual lyrics, such as, “I don’t need you, I can grow my own boyfriend. Box says he’ll be here by the weekend in a pot down in the kitchen.” What starts as playful shifts into a sharper critique of bad behavior, culminating in a wall of distorted guitars that makes this song a highly relatable listen.
