Adrian Griffin formed AGaugeFor, a metal band, in 1998 in Sydney. He originally played bass guitar and provided backing vocals. The other founding members were Tim Manton on drums and Nathan Williams on vocals and guitar. In March 2000, their track "Trawl It", was added to the national youth radio,
Triple J's playlist. In the following month, the station's music director,
Richard Kingsmill, invited the band to perform a live set for his
Australian Music Show. Griffin, now on drums, joined Melbourne-based
punk rock band
28 Days in September 2004, replacing Matt Bray. The group had been founded in 1997 by Jay Dunne as lead vocalist, guitarist Simon Hepburn, and bassist Damian Gardiner. Griffin was recorded on their six-track extended play, ''Bring 'Em Back'' (March 2006).
Hell City Glamours, Bonic, Killerhertz, Salacious Crumb, Quadbox, and Tubbh. 28 Days reformed in November 2009 to support
Bodyjar on that band's farewell tour. 28 Days issued a six-track EP,
Lost Songs, in 2013 and had disbanded again by 2015. Lo! were formed in Sydney in 2006 and by 2011 they comprised Griffin on drums with Adrian Shapiro on bass guitar, Jamie-Leigh Smith on lead vocals and Carl Whitbread on guitar (ex-Omerata). They released their debut album,
Look and Behold in 2011 via Pelagic Records. Griffin played drums for their third album,
Vestigal (October 2017). For seven years Griffin had lived in Asia and returned to Australia prior to recording
Vestigal. Whitbread explained, "we had much more time to all be together as a band and really work on the songs properly instead of the last minute rush that usually happens. I think we all felt more connected now having [Griffin] back in the country." ==Discography==
