Patrick Graham

Patrick Graham is an accomplished multi-percussionist, improviser, composer and instructor from Montreal, Canada.

Graham’s fascination with percussion and passion for sound has led him on a world-traversing journey, from studies at McGill University to masterclasses and private lessons in New York City, Crete and Sado Island, Japan. He re-imagines this world of influences, bridging far-flung sounds and rhythms to forge a personal and coherent musical voice. Graham is a founding member of percussion collectives, chamber music, folk and jazz ensembles, co-creator of dance and multi-disciplinary pieces, and a recording artist on dozens of albums, radio, TV, film and video game soundtracks. His recording Rheo was hailed in 2009 as one of the top albums of the year by the CBC Radio 2 program 'The Signal'.

Currently, Graham tours extensively with acclaimed ensemble Constantinople. He is recording solo improvisations for percussion and a collaborative album with electronic music artist John Sellekaers to be released in 2019 on Parenthèses Records.
