Interview with Tia McGraff

Described as having a voice stolen from angels, TIA MCGRAFF first stepped into the international spotlight on a CBC TV special with Johnny Cash and June Carter. Johnny was so impressed with Tia, he invited her backstage to introduce her to June. Johnny Cash wasn’t the only one who recognized a shining star. Soon heavy weights like Randy Bachman (BTO), Dan Hill (Celine Dion), Andrew Gold, Mark Slaughter (Rock Band “Slaughter”), and countless others, were inviting Tia to write and record with them. In 2010, Tia McGraff recorded, Diversity, on her and her husband's (Tommy Parham) own label, Bandana Records, and within weeks of the album’s release, received Country Recording of the Year at the Hamilton Music Awards, and broke the top 70 on the US based Americana Music Association charts. Tia is set to release a much-anticipated brand new album shortly and is here to talk about it and share some of the tracks.
