One of Cape Breton's finest traditional fiddlers, Glenn is also a composer, song-writer, step-dancer, music instructor and published author. His music has been featured on the International TV hit series Dawson's Creek, multiple CD compilations, TV specials and independent films and DVD productions. With five recordings and multiple East Coast Music Award nominations to his credit, it's no surprise that he is one of Cape Breton's most sought-after performers and music instructors. Influenced by the Gaelic sounds of the "Mabou Coal Mines" fiddle style that is found in the Celtic Cradle of North America, Glenn's roots go deep in the traditional music of Cape Breton. Glenn Graham, along with his sister Amy and a band including some of Cape Breton's most innovative musicians, has appeared at California's Villa Montalvo, the Celtic Colours International Festival, Stan Rogers Folk Festival, Lunenburg Folk Festival, Saint John Festival By the Sea, Granville Green Concert Series, College of the Atlantic, Bar Harbor Maine, the Wayne Gretzky Invitational, and numerous other venues. He performed in the first ever Cape Breton Live on Tour production, which toured Quebec and Ontario in November of 2006, with some of Cape Breton's most recognized musicians.
