Graham Nash
Event Description
“There are concerts. And then there are musical events that come across as transcendent experiences, celebrations of songs and sounds and stories that have endured for good reason, live shows that enter the space of the sacred.”
– Miers on Music (2025)
“Graham Nash proved why he is a two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee. With his career spanning sixty years, his songs are just as relevant today as they were decades ago… The man has nothing to prove, yet he does it every time he sets foot on stage.”
– North Coast Music Beat (2025)

ABOUT GRAHAM NASH
Nash is a two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, with Crosby, Stills, and Nash, and with the Hollies. He was also inducted twice into the Songwriters’ Hall of Fame, as a solo artist and with CSN, and he is a GRAMMY Award winner.
Towering above virtually everything that Graham Nash has accomplished in his multi-faceted career stands the litany of songs that he has written and introduced to the soundtrack of the past half-century. His remarkable body of work, beginning with his contributions to the Hollies opus, including “On a Carousel” and “Carrie Anne,” continues all the way to Now (2023), his most recent solo album.
The original classic union of Crosby, Stills & Nash (& Young) lasted but twenty months. Yet their songs are lightning rods embedded in our DNA, starting with Nash’s “Marrakesh Express,” and “Lady of the Island,” from the first Crosby, Stills & Nash LP (1969), and “Teach Your Children” and “Our House” on CSNY’s Déjà Vu (1970).
Nash’s solo career debuted with Songs For Beginners (1971), which included “Chicago/We Can Change the World” and “Military Madness” and others. In addition to his string of solo albums, he has performed and recorded with David Crosby as Crosby/Nash. Their eponymously titled Graham Nash/David Crosby (1972) is bookended by Nash’s “Southbound Train” and “Immigration Man”.
Graham Nash Bio
Graham Nash, as a founding member of both the Hollies and Crosby, Stills and Nash, is a two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee who has seen rock history unfold from the launch of the British Invasion to the birth of the Laurel Canyon movement a year later and beyond. An extraordinary Grammy Award® winning renaissance artist – and self-described “simple man” – Nash was inducted twice into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, for his work with CSN and his work as a solo artist.
Towering above virtually everything that Graham Nash has accomplished in his long and multi-faceted career, stands the litany of songs that he has written and introduced to the soundtrack of the past six decades. Nash’s remarkable body of work began with his contributions to the Hollies opus from 1964 to ’68, including “On A Carousel” and “Carrie Anne”, and continues all the way to Now (2023), his most recent solo album.
After leaving the Hollies at the end of 1968, Nash relocated to the US and in the span of less than a year, he and new musical partners Stephen Stills, David Crosby (and Neil Young), left a permanent imprint on contemporary music history with the first Crosby, Stills & Nash LP (1969) and CSNY’s Déjà Vu (1970), the former of which featured Nash’s “Marrakesh Express,” “Pre-Road Downs” and “Lady of the Island,” and the latter of which included his iconic “Teach Your Children” and “Our House”. His contribution to CSN’s oeuvre was further solidified with a pair of top ten hits, “Just A Song Before I Go” (1977) and “Wasted on The Way” (1982).
Nash’s career as a solo artist took flight in 1971 with the release of Songs for Beginners which included “Chicago/We Can Change the World” and “Military Madness,” showcasing the depths of his abilities as a singer and songwriter. Wild Tales, released in 1974, expanded on his exploration of topical themes with “Prison Song,” and “Oh! Camil”.
Nash and Crosby launched the most resilient, long-lived, and productive partnership to emerge from the CSNY camp (before Nash’s Wild Tales) with the eponymously titled Graham Nash/David Crosby (1972), which featured Nash’s “Southbound Train” and “Immigration Man” and was followed by Wind on the Water (1975) and Whistling Down the Wind (1976).
Nash’s passionate voice continues to be heard in support of peace, and social and environmental justice. The No Nukes/Musicians United for Safe Energy (MUSE) concerts he organized with Jackson Browne and Bonnie Raitt in 1979 remain seminal benefit events.
In September 2013, Nash released his long-awaited autobiography Wild Tales, which landed him on the New York Times Best Sellers list. In recognition for his contributions as a musician and philanthropist, Nash was appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) by Queen Elizabeth. While continually building his musical legacy, Nash is also an internationally renowned photographer whose work has been shown in galleries and museums worldwide. A collection of his photos is featured in the book A Life in Focus: The Photography of Graham Nash which was released in November 2021 by Insight Editions.
