Ryan Griffiths is the guitarist for the Australian garage rock band The Vines.

Craig Nicholls, who started the band, realised while touring for the promotion of Highly Evolved that the band needed an additional guitarist. So Craig asked his longtime friend and schoolmate Ryan to join the band.

[edit] Solo work

Ryan has written a few songs (circa. 2007) and he believes he would be able to release a solo album some time soon. The songs that he has written are influenced by his favourite bands, The Dandy Warhols, Brian Jonestown Massacre and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.

He also enjoys raising his reptiles.
