     Producer Jimmy Graham has been working full time in the music industry for over 25 years. Starting at the age of 12, he played drums in high school bands, then moved to bass, guitar and vocals to fill the needs of different band situations. He joined the Windsor Ontario band, Destiny in 1981 and toured Canada from Windsor to St John's Newfoundland from 1982-1984. Following the two and a half year stint, with Destiny, he started writing, recording and producing his own material as well as for other artists. During this time, he played with bands such as Manikan, Soldier, Jumper, The Leer Brothers and The Point.

   In 1985, engineer Jimmy Graham enrolled at the Recording Institute of Detroit to study audio engineering. After graduating recording school as a recording engineer, he was invited to intern at G.F.I. Studios in Rochester New York under record producer Tony Gross, (guitarist for Head East)

   Upon returning home, he released two national singles, "Going Places"(1987) and "Love that Girl" (1988). Both songs charted on rock and pop radio stations across Canada. The "Love that Girl" single was co-produced by Stacey Heydon (David Bowie, Sheriff, Teenage Head) at the famed Phase One recording studio in Toronto. The recording featured Freddi Curci (lead singer of Sherriff on background vocals), Greg Critchely (drums -Kim Mitchell, Partland Brothers), Bill Kennedy (engineer- Whitesnake)

   To promote the singles, record producer Jimmy Graham joined the Windsor Ontario band "The Fashion" and began writing more material with the band. Five years of hard work paid off when the band won a "Best of Southern Ontario" band contest. The battle was judged by A&R reps from Warner Brothers and Reprise Records.  The 4 song E.P. recording prize was produced and engineered by Jimmy Graham and spun off a local hit single, "Living in the Night".
