Graham Brazier

Graham Brazier’s swagger and musical talent are part of Kiwi music history. Brazier's career began with university band Oktober; in 1975 he joined Dave McArtney and Harry Lyon to form Hello Sailor. Their self-titled debut album spawned classics 'Gutter Black' and Brazier's 'Blue Lady'. Inbetween Hello Sailor and his band The Legionnaires, Brazier recorded solo albums Inside Out (1981) — which included classic track 'Billy Bold' — Brazier (1987) and East of Eden (2004). A fourth album was almost complete when he died on 4 September 2015, a month after suffering a heart attack.
