Following this, he took several years away from the business, traveled to Los Angeles to hone his musical skills and developed contacts there. Returning to Canada in 1963 under his new stage name, Tommy Graham, he was approached by Club Bluenote owner, Al Steiner, about backing a singer he had his eye on named Shirley Matthews. Graham formed The Big Town Boys featuring himself, Massey, Henderson, Josh Collins, Lewis and Arndt. The group gained prominence as backing musicians for vocalist Shirley Matthews on Tamarac Records with such songs as “Big Town Boy” (1963) and “Private Property” (1964). The band broke out on its own after being signed to RCA Victor under the name Tommy Graham & The Big Town Boys for one single called “Put You Down” in 1965. They were scooped up by Capitol Records for several more singles through 1965 and 1966 before moving to Yorkville records as Big Town Boys 4. The group toured across Canada many times and for over a year were the host band on CTV’s ‘After Four’ television show. Also during that time, they made sojourns to New York City where they became favourites in several clubs, playing with some soon-to-be giants in the business such as Jimi Hendrix. By 1968 The Big Town Boys (also known as BTB4) had run its course. Graham would find success as a solo artist back on Capitol Records; Michael Lewis, who had left the line-up early in the band’s career, relocated to Germany for school and joined an avante-garde improvisational project by Karl-Heinz Böttner entitled ‘Wired.’ By 1970 Lewis had formed the band Wuschel (meaning “something fuzzy”) who released one album on Philips in 1971 produced by Conny Plank. In 1972 he and Plank worked on a new project, and Lewis called on his old bandmates, Graham, Morton, and Collins from Big Town Boys to record a self-titled progressive rock album for the German music market under the name Mooseknukkl Groovband in 1972; Producer Conny Plank would also tap Collins to appear on the 1973 Andy Marx album “Circle” in Germany as well; Lewis remains in Germany and collaborated with Plank and American Michael Ranta (who Lewis had met in 1969 for the ‘Wired’ project) under the name Ranta/Lewis/Plank for a 2010 album entitled ‘Mu.’ with notes from Tommy Graham. The band had 6 songs on the Canadian RPM (RPM Music Weekly) Top 100 charts between 1965 and 1967, including 2 in the top 10
