Brown is currently celebrating the 40th anniversary of his hit single “I Wish That I Could Hurt That Way Again,” which was written by Curly Putman, Rafe Van Hoy, and Don Cook. It was the second single from his debut album, ‘I Tell It Like It Used To Be,’ recorded on Capitol Records.

Never one to slow down, T. Graham Brown recently participated in three major shows, including An All-Star Salute to 90s Country – Honky Tonk Time Machine in Huntsville, Alabama, The Gatlin Brothers’ 70th Anniversary celebration at the Ryman Auditorium, and Ronnie Milsap’s 50th Anniversary as a member of the Grand Ole Opry. The appearances reflect Brown’s deep dedication to country music and to the artists and friends he holds in the highest regard.

“I had an incredible time being part of The Gatlin Brothers’ 70th-anniversary show at the Ryman Auditorium; all three of them are dear friends of mine, and it was special to fellowship with so many of my artist brothers and sisters,” shares Brown. “And celebrating Ronnie Milsap’s 50th anniversary as a member of the Grand Ole Opry meant just as much. Ronnie is my hero — we did so many shows together back in the day — and he’s been a huge influence on what I do. I’m truly thankful I could be part of such unforgettable milestones and be a part of the All-Star Salute To 90s Country concert in Huntsville. Here’s to many more.”
