Floyd Graham | The Spotlight with Takee

Takee welcomes Floyd Graham to the studio to talk all things to do with music and creativity, as well as Casual Interplay; a Jam night he and his band 'Origami Jazz Fight' are putting on at the B.East in Brunswick on October 24th at 8:30 pm.

Floyd is a visual artist and multi-instrumentalist from New South Wales, Australia. Gifted an electric guitar at just five years old, Floyd’s early spark for music grew into a lifelong dedication to the arts. He went on to earn a degree with honours in composition, majoring in performance and sound production, setting the stage for a career defined by creativity and versatility.

Floyd’s journey as a composer began at sixteen, inspired by the intricate fingerstyle guitar work of artists like Michael Hedges, Kaki King, and Andy McKee. Since then, his sound has evolved into a rich fusion of Electronica, RnB, Progressive Rock, Folk, Jazz, and Indie — a reflection of his ever-expanding musical curiosity.

Now based in Melbourne, Floyd wears many creative hats: from solo producer and co-writer with Ben Ackerley of Strange Gringo, to sound designer for theatre and even wedding entertainer. He also leads Origami Jazz Fight, a four-piece jazz fusion project that celebrates improvisation, ear training, and the joy of musical exploration.

With such a broad palette of sounds and experiences, Floyd Graham continues to blur the lines between genres and disciplines — proving that true artistry knows no boundaries.
