Bio:

When you think of a singer-songwriter, who comes to mind?

Nathan Graham says it probably isn’t somebody who looks like he does, and he wants to change that.

Born and raised in Chicago, Graham meshes South Side Blues with Nashville Americana, beginning his career backing blues singers at famous haunts like Buddy Guy’s Legends and Kingston Mines. He spent a decade as a guitar-for-hire before picking up a mic to tell his own stories on the stage.

Soulful and steady, Graham’s music offers a raw introspective of the human condition that’s both painful and comforting. His guitar conveys heartbreak and his lyrics tell stories of regret, but his rich vocal delivery offers the remedy.

Having brought his songs on international tours with both major label and indie acts, Graham is challenging the notion of what it means to be a singer-songwriter. He’s driving inclusivity within the genre, and he hopes to evoke a sense of understanding in the process.

“I’m writing about universal experiences,” he says. “I’m writing music to connect my story to yours, show you all what we have in common, and maybe help both of us feel less alone.”

“Stellar debut…[Graham] manages to blend Soul, Rock, and Americana into an irresistible sound… This is a record that’s begging to be heard live.”

-GLIDE

“A powerhouse singer with a deep drive to connect, the Chicago-born-and-raised Graham tenderly wraps his fears and anxieties in velvety arrangements infused with a wide range of influences from rock and folk to soul and blues.”

-NO DEPRESSION

“Saint of Second Chances announces Graham as a songwriter and performer fully realized and ready to deliver salve-like anthems for trying times.”

-NO DEPRESSION
