Since the release of his 3rd full length album Dial Tones and Pretty Notes (2018), Graham Nicholas has maintained an extensive and country crossing touring schedule (over 120 shows). He has also shared the stage with the likes of Ron Hynes, Russell DeCarle, Catherine MacLellan, Old Man Luedecke, Del Barber and Daniel Romano. Listed by Now Magazine as one of their “2018 Toronto Musicians to Watch”, Graham Nicholas has created an emotionally resonant world inhabited by troubled and love-hungry characters. Never alienated for their insecurities, his characters are instead respected by the empathetic voice of an honest songwriter. The new album finds Nicholas honing in on his concise form of storytelling and refining his irreverent sense of humour. Coupling the narratives with a backing band that hearkens back to the likes of The Heartbreakers, The Travelling Wilburys, and The Byrds, Nicholas’ songs have found the right balance of warmth and grit.
