My friend Graham, besides being a skilled and talented graphics editor for the New York Times, is an extremely talented musician. He's currently in a band called Murder Mystery, and we became friends through music. Well, music and Science Olympiad, but that's a whole other story.
In addition to playing piano (he would play Chopin at the end of Orchestra class in middle school), and guitar (which he plays in Murder Mystery), he also played cello. So we were in Dorchestra (dorkestra, get it??) together, and a string quartet. At the end of high school we were also in a band together, and in college, he formed a band which went through a few iterations -- Spoontangle (which had a certain special word in the middle), The Classifieds, and then finally, The Glorious Ninth. I was their #1 fan and was pretty sad when they broke up.
Anyway, he recently started a music project with his very talented girlfriend, Jessica, and their first recording is a cover of Johnny Cash's "Long Black Veil." Check it!
