"Austin-based singer-songwriters handful of excellent solo albums since his 2005 debut, Naïve Melodies, know that what he really excels at are the kind of gorgeously melancholy musings that are best imbibed after last call. " Richard Skanse - Austin Chronicle
Folk troubadour, crooning balladeer, country drifter, father, husband and artistic director. Come on, whatd you expect? This is Austin. A seasoned musician, Graham Weber has released six solo studio and two live albums, as well as band releases with So, Long Problems and critically acclaimed, Western Youth.
He has toured North America and Europe and supported many of his songwriting heroes including Guy Clark, Slaid Cleaves, Todd Snider, Ramblin Jack Elliott, and Alejandro Escovado, among others. Since 2016, Graham has been the artistic director for The House of Songs an organization that has created artist collaborations across 33 countries to bridge cultures and manifest international collaborations in music. In his role, he has curated hundreds of cowrites, organized writing residency workshops, and hosted, produced, and booked countless live events, fundraisers, and concert series.
Weber has booked and produced events vital to Austin, and across the country, including HAAM Benefit Tribute Nights at Threadgills and Cactus Cafe, SXSW showcases from 2006-2018 consecutively, as well as the Folk Alliance International (2016-20), Americanafest Nashville and UK (2018-19), and the FreshGrass Festival (2021-22).
An Austinite since 2004 and just genuinely a peace-lovin' dude, Graham appears casual in what everyone else recognizes as relentless devotion to a mission to inspire and support music and its creators the heartbeat of our city and to some, the world.

"A brilliant live performer" - LA Times
"One of the few legitimate poets on the scene" -New York Press
With a style that drew comparisons to Van Morrison, Leon ard Cohen, and John Prine, Dirk Hamilton released a slew of critically acclaimed major label records In the mld-70 Into the 80's ('Meet Me at the Crux' is considered a minor masterpiece before leaving the music industry behind to counsel troubled teens. He never really stopped though, becoming something of a star In Italy and quietly releasing 14 more albums since 1989. He has rock and roll passion, razor-sharp wit, and the poetic musings of someone who has seen it all. McCabes Concerts
He toured the country with his crack rock band and released 4 major label albums in the mid-70s into the '80s but inexplicably disappeared for several years before returning with a vengeance and a brand new band. Performing both with bands and solo, Dirk has toured the U.S. as well as Europe for the last 30 years.
He has a catalog of 18 albums released on various labels both in the U.S. and Europe. He is known for his intelligent lyrics and passionate performances. He currently lives in New Mexico. His latest CD is called 'Touch and Go".
