AUGUST 2010: - Two new bookings added (see 2010 Gig List) and both over the Bank Holiday making it a busy weekend; The Crown, Nuneaton on the Saturday and Bostons, Coventry on the Sunday. Also we will be back at The Rose and Crown in Rushden in the near future. 

JULY 2010: - At last back on-line, computer system re-built and back in communication with the www. In July have to say we had the best ever response to the band at The King Billy so far but unfortunately it's our last official booking. CD is cut and Dance with the Devil is available to hear on Myspace.

JUNE 2010: - The Rose and Crown in Rushden for us on 3rd June, with the brewery having re-instated the music here; a little fear and trepidation it turned into a really good night and thanks to everyone for a tremendous response / reception; hope we get a chance to play for you again soon. At the Lodge Recording Studio 06/06/10 and mixed down all four tracks, you will just have to be patient before you can hear them; they are worth waiting for.

MAY 2010: - Hit the studio on 20th May and put down all the parts to four songs, returning sometime in June to Mix and Master. Big thanks to everyone who came along to our first time gig in Kettering at The Cherry Tree much appreciate the compliments received from on a and all and look forward to seeing you all again in November 2010. Big Thanks to Gary for opportunity to play. NEW Video page added to Website (Videos Courtesy of CarolAnn Photography). Studio time booked at "Lodge Recording Studios" on 20th May to do some more recording; new tracks should be out by end of month. 

APRIL 2010: - Following on from the two Fantastic nights with gigs at The King Billy on the Friday (02/04) and The Red Lion (03/04) in Brackley on the Saturday night; it keeps getting better with terrific night at Crown in Nuneaton 10/04/10 (that good we've got to sort out another date with Julian). It looks like there is a lot of competition for live music in Nuneaton on a Saturday, we seem to have chosen the best one on Saturday. Good night at the White Horse in Stony on 24/04/10; Tim, thanks for opportunity to play and the offer to have us back in 2011.We had a last minute booking for The King Billy on 30/04/10 and it was fantastic; from the feedback we got it was the same for audience as well. Gigs confirmed @ The Fox & Hounds, Stony Stratford, Milton Keynes; thanks to Paul for giving us opportunity to play.

Have you had chance to see video's from The King Billy? See new video page.

New songs going through rehearsal process at moment, coming your way soon; will be some surprises in store for you!

JANUARY 2010: All Gigs at The Rose & Crown, Rushden have been CANCELLED. New management wanting to "take stock" of arrangements so watch this space; hopefully they will be re-instated in the near future (Posted 27/01).

Sad news this week when we heard that Ian Mcallister at The Beer Engine has died, he ran a mighty fine establishment wanting to give opportunity to up and coming musicians and promote good music; he will be missed (Posted 26/01)

Thanks to everyone at the Kings Head on Friday (22nd) for a fantastic reception and an even bigger thanks for braving the weather. Thanks again to Stuart for "coming up with the goods" on drums but now really looking forward to seeing some new photos from Carol, the images viewed on the screen looked great. 

Stuart was looking to play his first gig for us at The Kings Head on 22nd January, unfortunately it was in at the deep end with gig at The King Billy on 15th Jan; the evening was fantastic, a "big-up" to Stuart for taking on the gig at short notice and playing a blinder - onwards and upwards.  

Web pages have had a bit of a refresh so check it out, particularly Gallery where we have added new pictures

When Dave moved on he must have left us a little of that good old Irish luck; we seem to have fallen straight on our feet with Stuart. First practice session and straight in and rattled through a dozen numbers. We believe this is going to give us a whole new feel; this is going to be different and exciting. Time will tell but you will need to come and see to find out!! 

DECEMBER 2009: This month had some highs and lows. Firstly there was an opportunity for us to play at The King Billy in Northampton which was great but unfortunately also saw the end of an era; Dave DWP Courage has decided to move on to other things. A shame as DC had added great energy and enthusiasm to the drums in GRAPHIC. 

NOVEMBER 2009: that time of year when the search for next years gigs commenced so look out for gig dates being posted on the web and Myspace

OCTOBER 2009: saw us perform for the first time at the Lord Byron for GRAPHIC

SEPTEMBER 2009: saw GRAPHIC set up on Myspace, site address details are as follows;
