Its been a long busy winter up here in Jensen beach and a while since I've shot some great music. Sept 08 memorial day week I met Graham and IKO IKO at the back room in Boca when they were playing at a fundraiser. I'm going to post some info below and upload some videos from the event which was pretty incredible- if you think about it - this is a line up for a blues festival. These muscians came out and poured their hearts for their friend. We all came out and enjoyed. So if you watch any of my videos please take the time to donate to help.
BENEFIT CONCERT AND SILENT AUCTION
Graham Wood Drout, frontman for IKO-IKO and the award-winning musician who's songs have also appeared with Blues artists, Albert Castiglia, Grady Champion, Joey Gilmore, and many others, is hospitalized in Miami with severe diabetes complications requiring several surgeries and multiple medical procedures.
Graham has performed with countless legends in music (Muddy Waters, Bo Diddley, Ronnie Wood, Jimmy Buffett, and on and on). He's one of South Florida's treasured sons and has donated so much of his own time supporting others during their times of need. From Toys for Tots to local TV & radio to countless individuals, Graham is always there to lend a hand.
Now, it's our turn to give back. Graham needs our help since, like so many working musicians, he has no health insurance benefits to cover these extraordinary costs. This benefit concert and silent auction will help and we hope that you can be a part of it.
