Graham Lockyer is a singer/songwriter who prefers to write primarily
for other artists. He is a keen student of crafting melody with lyric, who would love
nothing more than to hear others perform his work. His early influences came from the music of
Bob Dylan, James Taylor and Neil Young, and latterly from the classy sounds of Squeeze and Tom Petty.
For more than 20 years, he made the balance between holding down a full-time career in Business IT,
whilst writing his own music in ever diminishing spare time.
During Summer 2004, Graham made a strong decision to quit his business life and enter the world of
professional song writing ... full time. He also decided to leave the UK and set up a new home
in Dol de Bretagne, France.
Six years on ... Graham admits to that 'career change' being possibly the best
decision of his life! His studies of the great songwriters continue to hold his attention, and with
enthusiasm maintained, he firmly believes his best writing is still to come.
