Goth Babe

Griffin Washburn, better known by his music alias Goth Babe, is an indie pop artist that began his career in 2015 in Nashville, TN. The name comes from the song "Goth Babe" by the band Surf Curse. Goth Babe began when Griffin Washburn started writing songs in his dorm room. In 2016, he moved beyond his bedroom, with twelve live shows in Tennessee. After pursuing music and modeling in New York City, he moved to the West Coast in 2017. Traveling around California and Oregon in his camper truck, he leads a simple and adventurous lifestyle accompanied by his dog Sadie. In between surfing and climbing excursions, he records and produces his music out of his camper. Several of his songs have music videos that prominently feature the Pacific Northwest landscapes, such as Mt. Hood and the Oregon coast. Washburn says that he aims to write happy and fun music. Others have described his music as "raw," "garage," "surf," and "lo-fi." His primary musical instruments are guitar and keyboard. From 2017 - 2020, Goth Babe played shows primarily on the West Coast.
