JAKI GRAHAM

Based in UK

In order to understand the real woman behind “Jaki Graham”, she is someone who has successfully combined family and career without ever losing sight of her integrity or values with which she was raised. Jaki is a unique entertainer - her down-to-earth
approach to life and compassion for others combined with a powerful and inspirational voice and visual impact on stage have made her one of the most appealing and enduring Soul entertainers that Britain has ever created.

Jaki was born in Birmingham on the 15th September 1956 with the name Jacqueline Maureen Graham. The spelling deviation of Jackie only came about upon requests of EMI bosses when signing her first contract. Rarely is the birth name of an artist used but in Jaki’s case it is very symbolic of the total lack of pretension and honesty in her character.

Jaki’s childhood however was far from easy. Her parents came from Jamaica and moved to England in the fifties. They were joined by her grandmother on her mother’s side two weeks before Jaki was born. Although her father was much older than her mother, age difference never seemed to be a problem in the Graham marriage and to all who knew them, they seemed to have a very stable and comfortable marriage.

However, at the age of 5, Jaki’s mother left and disappeared without explanation. It was a shock to all of the family because she was such a warm, endearing person to everyone. Nonetheless, she left behind Jaki, her brother and elder sister with the father and grandmother to raise them.

The moment her grandmother took over, Jaki had a very strict upbringing. Her grandmother taught her respect, manners and high moral standards which shaped the person the world has come to love so much today. It is of little surprise that her
grandmother became the single most important influence in her life.....
