I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Graham for a number of years now. I first met him in Stornaway when the band were playing at a Mod dance a few years ago. He joined us for a tune at the dance that night where we all thoroughly enjoyed listening to his style and swing. He has a distinctive ‘west coast’ sound and feel to his playing which is not only great to listen to, but full of energy and drive for dancing. He is one of the most talented and musical box players I have heard and you can hear this in his playing. He loves nothing better than having a tune on the box and has a very bright future ahead of him.Stuart Cameron, Deoch n Dorus Ceilidh Band
