Recorded across home and a hidden Seattle studio, the EP symbolises the dichotomy of tough times and hopeful resurgence. Rooted in family legacy – Graham's grandfather directed music for CBS – his musical evolution unfolds from punk fascination to community-building in Seattle's scene.
As the pandemic reshaped the music landscape, Graham delved into production and collaboration, revealing his versatility. The Could Be Worse EP stands as a testament to Timothy Robert Graham's resilience and creativity, reminding us to embrace imperfection, find strength in adversity, and cherish the journey's silver linings.
