Graeme Knights
Graeme Knights (born July 24 1968, Cheam, Greater London, England) is a traditional/contemporary folk music singer, currently residing in the north west of London.
Graeme’s involvement in folk music goes back over eighteen years and apart from his singing, he has been involved in running several clubs and was Director of the Doncaster Folk Festival for six years. Although Graeme enjoyed a high profile, singing shanties and Sea songs with the respected group "LANDLOCKED" for five years, his singing is not limited to just this type of song. His repertoire is wide ranging and he can apply his rich baritone voice to encompass Traditional Love Songs, Mining Songs, Gospels, Drinking and Music Hall Songs and some more recently written contemporary songs – many with good enjoyable and singable choruses.
After making regular voyages and now being watch leader on board the 490-ton three-masted Barque STS Lord Nelson, Graeme will be delivering his ‘signature song’ “Don’t Disable Me” with a little extra zest!
As well as frequent appearances at Folk Clubs and Folk Festivals around Britain, Graeme is also a regular guest at Clubs and Festivals in the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany. As well as tours to The USA and Canada. Graeme regularly sing with Johnny Collins and can also be heard singing with Jim Mageean

He has released 4 studio albums: a cassette tape-only with 'LANDLOCKED' called "Home & Dry" another called "Sea Sick Again" which was later released in CD format and two solo albums (CD Albums) called 'Echo From Afar' and 'Life is a Song', respectively.
