GRIOT is a multinational rock band formed by musicians João Pascoal and Sérgio Ferreira in 2014.
GRIOT's sound evokes a style of progressive rock that explores and creates different textures and soundscapes.
The bands song-writing style revolves around self-published literature included in each album’s concept


Griot tells a story about Gerald and Elisabeth, exploring their journey in search of something grand, new... A Journey about something more.
