In this episode of Looking Back, we sit down with Graham Harrop, a man whose life has been shaped by art, music, and creativity.
Growing up in post-war England, Graham remembers the simple joys of childhood, his growing love for school, and the path that led him to art college, specialising in interior design.
Graham takes us back to the swinging ‘60s, where he found his people in the music scene, recorded a song at Abbey Road, and even jammed with Jimi Hendrix at a London speakeasy.
He rubbed shoulders with icons like Rod Stewart and Stephen Stills, but eventually, life led him in a new direction—moving with his family to Australia and returning to his first love, design, music and creativity.
