For those unaware, Graham Czach is an artist-activist and accomplished upright and electric bassist, composer, producer, vocalist, and guitarist.

Releasing his new full-length concept album Originalien on Ropeadope Records in 2023, the collection of 11 songs is not bound by any traditional convention.

Started at the beginning of the pandemic in early 2020, the album tells a sincere heartfelt story with larger-than-life musical arrangements featuring a host of all-star guests and collaborators, including GRAMMY nominated artist Rachel Eckroth, Angelo Moore of Fishbone, the Budapest Scoring Symphony Orchestra, drummer and artist Makaya McCraven, and many more.

This magnificently crafted new album opens on the veritably cinematic, sweepingly symphonic DOB 2023 and then proceeds to bring us the rhythmical, African-hued One Human, the synth strewn, low ebb and flow of Follow Me and I’ll Follow You (featuring Rachel Eckroth), then a dutiful military musical tack is taken for the impassioned Born Soldier, and then we get the gentle pop-reggae-rock flow of Cut You To The Bone.

The beautifully harmonized, mid-tempo digitalized balladry of Get Through is along next and is itself backed seamlessly by the bombastic, psych-countrified rock of Can’t See A Thing (featuring Angelo Moore), then comes an achingly stirring, rising temperature found within All The People, the atmospherically charged Where’d Our Love Go is next, the recording rounding out on the ’90s indie pop sound of Remain, closing on a whole host of singer/songwriters coming together to bring forth the euphoric Come Home Again.

When the pandemic stopped many musicians and artists in their tracks, Czach was inspired to dig deep and create something that would realize his passion to tell a story and make a difference through music once again. He started an ambitious project with the first song he wrote for the new concept album Originalien called “Come Home Again” which features 33 professional musicians and friends benefiting the COVID Musicians Relief Fund to help musicians out of work and in need.

With the success of this endeavor, a flood gate of ideas and creativity opened up, taking him on a journey for the next ten months of writing, arranging, and organizing the “One Human” Project featuring a world orchestra and 123 Artists from 110 Countries benefiting UNICEF, which went on to break a world record for “Most Nationalities Contributing Vocals to a Musical Recording (Single Song)”.

“One Human” is a prime example of Czach’s purpose behind the album, which is to tell a collective story through music that no matter what our differences are, we must seek empathy and understanding for each other through the shared bond of co-existence and experiencing the human condition. “We are stronger together, and few things exemplify this message more than Graham Czach’s ONE HUMAN project – bringing together artists from all over the world to support UNICEF’s lifesaving work.”, says UNICEF.
