Graham Lindsey is an American singer, songwriter, and musician born and raised in Madison, Wisconsin. He played in several punk bands, including Old Skull; "the world's youngest punk band", while still in high-school. He released his first solo album in 2003. While retaining the punk attitude and political awareness Lindsey's music had since evolved and exposed his folk and country roots, to create a mix of folk, alternative country, Americana & country noir. He has since released two more albums, one EP and contributed to several compilations. Four of Lindsey's songs were used in the direct-to-DVD film Fairview St., released in 2010. His song "Emma Rumble" was used in the direct-to-DVD film Dunsmore, released in 2004. Lindsey lives in Montana and performs with his wife Tina Lindsey.

History
Lindsey left home at age fourteen and resided in New Orleans, Brooklyn, and Nebraska. After the dissolution of Old Skulland as he hit his teen years -- Lindsey became interested in acoustic music (particularly the burgeoning anti-folk movement) and started playing local gigs in Madison, WI. After that period, he dropped music altogether for four years. Famous Anonymous Wilderness seems to at once distill ancient, knee-trembling folk and "alt" otherness, with a few tracks stepping in alt-country directions.
