"Honest toil from a Son of the NY soil" from Americana UK ......................
There can’t be all that many Americans called Graham can there? Graham Parker and Graham Nash are ex-pats so they don’t count. There can however be lots of Americans who purvey music of the sort on offer here: melodic, countrified rock-pop of the sort that was tailor made for an evening in the company of your favourite bar-stool, your favourite beer and your favourite New York hangout (even if it is just a dream and you are supping pints of mild down at the local CIU Affiliated). Graham Tracey and The Sons are in fact just Graham Tracey – a ‘composer for film and television’ from Brooklyn who fancied putting out something a little different form the day job norm. And good on him because if there’s more where this came from then the future looks pretty bright. -Paul Villers

Was cool seeing you there a few weeks back..I got a ride to Kelowna just after I seen you there...one of those 'we're going right now' kind of things. So that was sweet, both Zinger and I had a helluva time. Just before I left town a total stranger to me, Dusty, (you probably know him) was like, 'great show man, here's tonnes of keef hash'
