Named one of the World’s Top 30 Guitarists under 30 and hailed as a “virtuoso of the fingerstyle guitar” by Acoustic Guitar Magazine, Calum Graham is a captivating force in the acoustic music scene.

Born in Fort St. John, British Columbia, and now based in Victoria, Canada, Calum’s meteoric rise began when he won the Canadian Fingerstyle Guitar Competition at just 17. Since then, he has toured the world, including performances at the Vancouver and London Olympics, and released 10 critically acclaimed albums.

His live repertoire is a tapestry woven from the Acoustic Guitar, interweaving original compositions with traces of folk, world, soul, blues, and jazz, all anchored in his virtuosic mastery of fingerstyle technique inspired by Michael Hedges, Don Ross, Andy McKee, and Antoine Dufour.

Join us for an evening with Calum Graham, where innovative compositions meet breathtaking skill. Experience the magic of one of the world’s finest young guitarists as he takes you on a musical journey that will linger long after the final note. Don’t miss Calum’s inaugral Australian tour!
