ბრიტანული პროგ ფოლკ როკ ჯგუფი გრიფონი დაარსდა 1973 წელს Richard HARVEY სა და Brian GULLAND ის მიერ.გრიფონის მუსიკა აგებულია ინგლისურ ფოლკლორსა, რენესანსისა და ბაროკოს ხანის მუსიკაზე თანამედროვე ფორმატში.ჯგუფის ძირითადი საკრავები არის შუა საუკუნეებისა და თანაამედროვე ჩასაბერი ინსტრუმენტები,დროთა განმავლობაში კი ემატებოდნენ მუსიკოსები ბასი დრამი გიტარა და ა.შ რითიც გრიფონის მუსიკა უფრო მძიმე გახდა.ამ ჯგუფს სამი წელია ვუსმენ და ყოველთვის ძალიან მსიამოვნებს მოსმენა,ვინც არ იცნობთ მათ შემოქმედებას გადაწერეთ და ისიამოვნეთ.
