DEANO GRAHAM SHARES FIRST SINGLE “I Bleed The Color Free”

Deano Graham has released his debut single “I Bleed The Color Free” dedicated to all Veterans and their families. The song idea came quickly with the typical song hook of “I bleed the color free”, and the race was on to create today’s new patriotic anthem.


The Bishop of Bluegrass has ventured into the world of traditional bluegrass after two stellar all-gospel recordings (2021 & 2022). Presenting soul-stirring “smooth as butter” vocals, clever and entertaining lyrics, Deano Graham is delivering music that people really can relate to. “I Bleed The Color Free” is co-written with Nashville’s own James Payne who has 89, #1 songs to his credit, and bluegrass banjo veteran Billy Lee Cox (Remington Ryde).

While “I Bleed The Color Free” is a soul-stirring tribute to the Veterans of the U.S.A. and their families “Vince Gill styled ballad”, this patriotic song features the musical wizardry of notable Nashville musicians including Andy Leftwich (fiddle and mandolin), Wanda Vick Burchfield (dobro and banjo), Shaun Richardson (acoustic guitar), and Mark Burchfield (upright bass).

It’s the perfect blend of bluegrass and patriotism.
