returns to the Rose Bowl Tavern
with his rich blend of soul and blues.
Born and raised in Chicago, Graham meshes South Side Blues with
Nashville Americana, beginning his career backing blues singers at
famous haunts like Buddy Guy’s Legends and Kingston Mines.
He spent a decade as a guitar-for-hire before picking up a mic
to tell his own stories on the stage.
Soulful and steady, Graham’s music offers a raw introspective of the human condition
that’s both painful and comforting. His guitar conveys heartbreak,
lyrics tell stories of regret, but his rich vocal delivery offers the remedy.
Having brought his songs on international tours with both major label and indie acts,
Graham is challenging the notion of what it means to be a singer-songwriter.
He’s driving inclusivity within the genre,
and he hopes to evoke a sense of understanding in the process.
