The Socially Conscious Artist Partners With 
Planned Parenthood Of Illinois (PPIL) For His Solo Debut

Chicago’s rising bassist/singer/songwriter Graham Czach rocked the stage at the acclaimed music venue Martyr’s in Chicago celebrating the release of his solo debut albumLucid on October 15. Joining him on stage for the engaging show was Umphrey’s McGee drummer Kris Myers, along with keyboardist Matt Nelson (Lupe Fiasco, Matthew Santos), guitarist Chris Siebold (Howard Levy, Kick the Cat) and bassist Graham Burris (Lupe Fiasco, Matthew Santos). 

The socially conscious rocker teamed up with Planned Parenthood of Illinois (PPIL) and donated a portion of sales generated during the event to the organization. Katy Schafer and Julie Shimko of PPIL took the stage to speak about the cause just before Czach performed his powerful song about abortion rights entitled “Choice.”  

In addition to PPIL, Czach has pledged to donate a portion of all Lucid album sales to other non-profit organizations including Greenpeace, the American Cancer Society and the Art of Living Foundation.

The Chicago Music Award winning singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist’s originality and versatility as both a musician and composer have earned him endorsements from two internationally recognized music equipment companies—D’Addario Strings and Eden Electronics/US Music Corp. Graham was also recently spotlighted by the Chicago Tribune, click here to view the article.

Czach’s wild creativity and unique versatile sound have also earned the Windy City native a nomination for The Deli Chicago’s Artist of the Month in September. 

His eclectic album reflects his early influences when Led Zeppelin, The Beatles and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young were practically a religion, along with icons in later years like and Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Red Hot Chili Peppers and The Mars Volta.
