Their 2005 song, “Breathless,” was covered by Taylor Swift at the Hope for Haiti telethon and during her worldwide tour.

The band released their eighth studio album All Together Now secured a Top 30 song with lead single “Crazy Lucky.”

Griffin has produced and written songs performed by artists such as Taylor Swift, Train, Sugarland, Barenaked Ladies, Christina Perri, and James Blunt. He scored a #1 hit in 2005 with Howie Day’s Collide.

Kevin teamed up with fellow songwriter Sam Hollander to form the Band of Merrymakers, a rotating-cast Yuletide super group featuring today’s biggest artists. The group released their debut single “Must Be Christmas” where a portion of the proceeds benefit MusiCares Foundation®.
