The Franc Graham Band sugar tree
Groovy low down sound. “Graham's voice evokes PJ Harvey without mimicry... showcased nicely amongst the turntables, B-3's and clavinetsâ#128;¦It'll sweep you up like the fall wind.” - The Weekly Dig .
Electric poetry ...rock with emotion." -Ink 19
Franc Graham Band is difficult to categorize, as most great things are. The throughline is Graham's beautiful lyrics and warm vocals, set sometimes in, sometimes against, powerful and deep grooves with uncommon intrumentation. And we all know great writing is rare - but here you'll find it.
Sugar Tree features Boston greats like Billy Conway (Morphine) on drums; Chris Rival (Deb Pasternak, Dennis Brennan) on various instruments including slide, clavinet and piano; Pacey Foster (Pineapple Ranch Hands) on turntables and harmonica; and Eric Paull (Clem Snide, Count Zero) on drums.
Like their first CD, It is Good, also produced by Chris Rival, Sugar Tree has received great praise - for the whole range of their sound, from the slightly bent rockers to the sweet, but not too sweet, groovy ballads.
"Immensely underrated...cool and commanding...an unusually rich blend of singer-songwriter rock..." - The Boston Globe
