So heartwarming that The Saxon Pub already has a Jon Dee plaque on their wall. Last night was one hell of a tribute for Jon Dee Graham. We are so honored by the Saxon Jon Langford & Tracey Dear for hosting one of the of the most heartfelt memorials of a lifetime & making us all “feel the Magesty of Love.” (One of many song he wrote for my mom & this one too.) Jon Dee thought of you Jon & Tracey as brothers. Thanks to the Saxon for feeeling like “Home,” one of JDG’s songs. The Saxon was the last place JDG celebrated his last birthday, weeks before he passed away-words we will
not get used to. The Saxon was also the place my parents met. Around a year ago my dad asked me to officially join his band & produce his new record. I’d often sit in sometimes but that was a moment I will hold in my heart forever. It
will always be one of greatest honors
of my life. Thank you to all came out tonight and to
The Saxon Pub, & to Tracey Dear, & Jon Langford for coming in from Chicago. Many more thanks to everyone who played & photos/video to come, as also others are posting too. Thank you for holding us in your hearts for my father so much, & Roy, me (William), & Gretch.

MAY 16 at The Saxon Pub! This is going to be one of the most special nights we’ll ever get to share.

A celebration of Jon Dee Graham, his music, his spirit, and the community he built around him. Hosted by Jon Langford and Tracey Dear The lineup alone says everything, but it’s really about all of us coming together for something that matters.

We’re expecting this will sell out. If you want to be there, don’t wait.

It’s been exactly 3 week since The Bear walked into the forest, laid down for up for a nap, & dreamt himself into heaven. His favorite movies were It’s a Wonderful Life (we watch it every single year) and What Dreams May Come (we’ve watched it 2x since he impossibly walked into the woods to never come out again). He believed in angels and heaven, and everything else in between. And he loved people. He loved you all. 💜🎶💔

We are finding so much art. We found some George Reiff sketches. One from touring way back in the day & one when he was taking flight.
Tonight at the The Continental Club The Fighting Cocks will burn it to the ground for Jon Dee & George too. In one of his journals near this last sketch he talks about playing with George & what an absolute incredible bass player he was. William Harries Graham plays before & will also burn it down. Come out! Music is our solace in this time. Everyone is still in shock.

The Fighting Cocks will be returning tomorrow night to The Continental Club. We’re not quite done yet. And there will be some announcements soon about a public memorial and tributes. Come out to Wednesday Night Church tomorrow - William

Honored to pay tribute to my father tonight on Sun Radio. One of my favorite things to do with Jon Dee in the last year of his life was to sit in our back room together and listen to music. A lot of the songs during this hour are songs we listened to together during those times. Much love - William

Thank you to everyone for the outpouring of love and support. There have been a bunch of AI videos speculating Jon Dee’s death (INSANE that people are doing that for clicks). Given the fact that he is a public figure, we wanted to let people know that Jon Dee passed away due to fall on Friday. His body was under a lot of strain from the surgeries. From what we have been able to deduce he was letting our dog Winston out and fell. He died instantly from the fall according to the Medical Examiner, who only had to do a CT scan on him - William & the Professor
