RED STREET RECORDS’ RYAN GRIFFIN'S SLOW DOWN SUNRISE EP AVAILABLE NOW
Collection Features Acoustic Version of Breakout Hit
“Salt, Lime & Tequila”
Nashville, TN - May 6, 2022 — Breakout artist and multi-PLATINUM songwriter Ryan Griffin's EP SLOW DOWN SUNRISE is available today via Red Street Records. The EP is anchored by the undeniable hit single “Salt, Lime & Tequila,” which climbed to No. 1 on Sirius XM The Highway's Hot 30 Countdown, was one of the most added songs at country radio upon its debut and has tallied nearly 14 million global streams. The six song project is available here and features an acoustic version of the "overnight success" (PopCulture) song “Salt, Lime & Tequila.”
The rising star returns with a renewed sense of purpose on SLOW DOWN SUNRISE — whether it’s to encourage fans they can persevere through hard times, or just remind them to soak up the sun while it shines. From the backyard breeze of his current single to standouts like “Closing Time," the project is chock-full of instantaneous favorites.
"I'm so excited to finally get to share SLOW DOWN SUNRISE with the world," Griffin said. "My goal with this EP was to create a collection of songs that provides a little escape whenever you listen. I hope SLOW DOWN SUNRISE is your summer soundtrack and puts a smile on your face."
Griffin recently shared his new tunes with fans at Stagecoach Music Festival, where he was touted as a "standout" by E!. He is gearing up to play Pepsi Gulf Coast Jam 6/3 and CMA Music Fest at Ascend Park on 6/11.

More than 10 years after proving he had the talent, the timing is finally right for Red Street Country artist Ryan Griffin. A Platinum-certified Number One songwriter (Kelsea Ballerini’s “Dibs” in 2015) the Florida native has previously created sparks of early connection, earning tens of millions of streams from soul-baring tracks like 2017’s “Would’ve Left Me Too.” Two deeply human EPs followed, mixing raw vulnerability with meant-to-be determination and landing Griffin’s supple, evocative vocal on “Ones to Watch” lists from Rolling Stone to AOL, AXS and more. But after two years of pandemic-related upheaval, his messages have become more relevant than ever – and he’s returning with a renewed sense of purpose. On a new batch of soul-mending country R&B, Griffin’s 2022 EP SLOW DOWN SUNRISE is built around courageous character and fire-tested faith, mixing equal parts encouragement and epiphany. Tracks like “Salt, Tequila, Lime” find Griffin’s top-shelf vocal chilled and served fresh, reminding listeners that life’s essential ingredients are easy to find. With even more compassionate, tell-it-like-it-is country on the way, his sophisticated style is just now emerging.
