E-MAIL GRAHAM |
Graham was born in England and came to America when he
was 10 years old. His family settled in Fort
Lauderdale, Florida.
"There
was always a guitar laying around the house when I was
growing up and by the time I graduated from high
school, I knew at least three chords!" says Graham.
An early inspiration came one day when a couple of
classmates entertained the school singing and playing
their guitars. Graham decided he wanted to do that too!
After a year of college, Graham joined the Air Force,
eventually winding up at Tinker Air Force Base in
Oklahoma City. He teamed up with a fellow airman
and the two of them began singing and playing their acoustic guitars in local coffee shops. At one of these gigs, he met a local musician whose ambitions and goals
were the same as his. They become good friends and
together they founded "THE FOXXE", a
popular Oklahoma City band during the late '60's and
early 70's. |
Graham has performed with a number of musical groups across the
country. At one time he was a backing musician for Rock n' Roll
legend Del Shannon and performed
similar duties for recording artist Brian Hyland.
He has performed with many other well-known artists
over the years.
Graham has a digital recording studio in his home and has written
and produced a number of radio spots that feature his wife IRA. He is also involved with
television commercial production and has appeared in TV commercials
in the Oklahoma City and Tulsa markets.
He also wrote the song Happy Birthday
Elvis which was featured on
KOMA
Radio's Elvis Birthday Special.
The supervisor of
the Electronics Department for the Oklahoma City Public
School System, Graham lives with his wife Ira in Choctaw, Oklahoma.
