Two years after his Hello Sailor band mate Dave McArtney died, Graham Brazier also passed away on 4 September 2015 from a heart attack. The news devastated the local music industry. For many, Hello Sailor were part of the soundtrack of their lives.
Prior to his passing Graham Brazier had been spending every Thursday night with OMC Producer Alan Jansson, laying down tracks to complete his final album, Left Turn at Midnite.
