RYAN GRIFFIN PREMIERES CINEMATIC MUSIC VIDEO FOR "RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW"
Altadena / Warner Records / Warner Music Nashville emerging vocal knockout RYAN GRIFFIN is premiering the official music video for his debut song “Right Here Right Now,” on Billboard.com today (10/3). Filmed in downtown Los Angeles, CA, and directed by Nicholas Lam, the clip follows an unlikely love story simmering between a couple whose world is ending as they know it. The intense setting builds on the track’s live-for-today vibe, with lyrics penned by Griffin alongside Josh London and Jason Massey. Watch the cinematic video unfold HERE.
"As soon as the lyric started, I saw a vivid movie flashing before my eyes,” Griffin tells Billboard. “It wasn’t what I expected, but it made me feel the intense passion I wanted to capture. It was surreal! I’m so thankful we found the director Nick Lam to pull it off. He captures scenes the way I write songs. I knew he was the guy as soon as I saw a piece of his work."
Griffin took Entertainment Tonight exclusively behind the scenes of his first-ever music video. Check your local listings HERE for this Saturday’s (10/5) episode to get an inside look at the making of “Right Here Right Now.”
The heart-forward up-and-comer continues to seize his moment, with more new music on the horizon.

Named one of Rolling Stone’s “10 New Country Artists You Need To Know” and recently a special guest on Old Dominion’s MAKE IT SWEET TOUR, he will showcase his stunning vocals and hardwired emotional connection on the road with Carly Pearce this fall.
