When musician Griff Washburn, who performs under the stage name Goth Babe, traded his sound studio for the open road, he discovered new sights, sounds, and the inspiration he was after.
“It’s like no other relationship I have with an open space or national park,” says Washburn of his explorations in music and nature in Joshua Tree National Park.
Whether hes chasing his next great melody or discovering an untouched trail, Washburn embodies the spirit of New Dirt as a way to push past the familiar, embrace the unknown, and let the outdoors spark something new. For him, New Dirt is about more than just a change of scenery — its a mindset.
“Music is my passion, says Washburn, but so is travel. Exploring new sounds as Im exploring new places feels authentic to me.”
