Complete Album Review Review by Michael P. Jones (Great Northwest Music Preview)
Album: "Kick The Can"
The music of singer-songwriter Tony Graham seemingly makes you levitate off the ground, allowing you to mistakenly believe that you are actually "dancing on air". And, yet, in reality he writes and sings those songs that invokes those special kinds of feelings similar to when you fall in love.
It can't get much better than that.
This singer-songwriter is one of the absolute best in the Pacific Northwest, or anywhere else for that matter, with his mastery of lyrical stories and enchanting music that all helps to nourish the listener's soul. Without the songs of Graham, this world would not be the same.
When Graham performs live it's hard to imagine anyone else taking to the stage that would be as talented in song-writing or as gifted in his ability to overwhelm the audience with his abundance of creativity. He tends to give songs a life of their own through his superb arrangements and easy- to-identify-with lyrics.
I first met Graham when he was a cashier at the local Thriftway store in the Village of Welches, Oregon, nestled in the southwestern foothills of Mount Hood. He was paying his dues to make ends meet while writing songs.
Looking at Graham, I had no idea that not only could he write songs, but he could also perform them.
When he took to the Great Northwest Music stage at the "Mount Hood Huckleberry Festival & Barlow Trail
