Born in 1958 in Great Barr, Birmingham, Graham was 12 when his father
bought him his first organ. After teaching himself to play, he started
performing for Ballroom Dancing at 16, and at 18 played in a five piece
dance band called Town & Country. He then became part of a duo with
drummer Mike Hewitt before becoming resident organist for the Aquarius
Ballrooms in Hednesford, where he still appears to this day.
In recent years Graham has become a popular figure on the Ballroom and
Sequence dance circuit, gaining a dedicated following with his up beat and
enthusiastic style, for which he is affectionately known as 'Mr Music'.
Graham puts his current success firmly down to the support from his dance
teacher wife, Denise, to whom his latest album is dedicated, especially
summed up by the title, 'Friends For Life'.
