Graham was born on 10 February 1977 in
Dewsbury, England. He was strongly influenced and supported by his parents from a young age to enjoy music and was taken to rock shows from the age of 7 to see such bands as
Queen,
Iron Maiden and
Bruce Springsteen. Graham started playing Bass as his main instrument in 1988 playing in local bands around the West Yorkshire area. He moved to Nottingham in 1999 and helped form the stoner rock band Ninedenine who released the highly praised Scars E.P in 2001. During this time he also worked at
Earache Records processing orders for the label's then-first webstore. In May 2004, Graham moved to
Kenora in Northwest Ontario, Canada where he spent time volunteering in the
First Nations community.
Rise to Addiction In 2006, Graham returned to his birth town of Dewsbury and replaced Rob Naylor as the bassist of Rise to Addiction. Graham co-wrote and played on the albums
A New Shade of Black for the Soul 2007 and
Some Other Truth 2009.
Evile On 16 December 2009, Graham was announced as the replacement for Mike Alexander, the founding Evile bassist who died whilst on tour in Sweden on 5 October 2009. Graham played his first show with Evile on 14 January 2010 at Cardiff Barfly, also the same day his daughter was born. After a long intensive tour through the United States in 2010, he began recording the third Evile album ''
Five Serpent's Teeth. This is the first Evile album to feature him as the bass player, although the re-dux edition of Infected Nations'' released in 2010 contained a bonus disc of live material which featured him playing bass.
Writing In early 2014, Graham joined Bass Guitar Magazine as a reviewer and contributing writer. == Playing style ==
