From there, they played a few more shows throughout the years, most notably the Savannah College of Art and Design’s (SCAD) Photography Dept. Prom with Max’s late father, tenured SCAD Photography professor and original deep bluesman, Pete Christman. After high school, though, Max went to the Savannah College of Art and Design for audio engineering, and Linc went on to join the Army, where he continues to serve to this day as a Staff Sergeant. As can often happen when friends live apart, Linc and Max fell out of touch…but this all changed in 2015, when Linc decided to finally start recording the songs he’d been writing his whole life, many of which were written about experiences he’d had in the Army, in addition to love had, love lost, and love tossed. In these years apart from Max, Linc honed his live performance chops at High Rock Outfitters, amongst many other North Carolina and New York music venues, as a session keyboardist when the Army afforded him time. But Linc was ready to record his own music now. He also knew he needed a quality drummer and that no other person but Max could fit the bill. So after Linc reached out to Max for the first time in nearly a decade, it was like they’d never skipped a beat, and they collaborated on Linc’s first musical release, a six-song short album entitled The Darkest of Nights, released on 6 September 2020. Max provided drums and Linc singing and playing nearly every instrument on the record. The record was ok, but it was missing something. Linc was no bass or guitar player and hardly an adequate singer, so he started musical training two hours or more every day on his own in addition to studying weekly with one of the most revered classical tenors of all time, Mr. George Shirley, to vocally prepare for what was to come. Linc found his singing voice after a over year of training with Mr. Shirley, and then, after Max brought in another successful Savannah musician, bassist for Whiskey and Wine, Darien Converse, the band was almost ready. But they still needed one vital ingredient - a quality guitarist. More details on Linc Bradham and the Various Possibilities’ guitarist are to come on November 19th, but he’s no stranger to the Piedmont Traid North Carolina music scene, and sure to please a lot of familiar faces. Max is one of the most successful gigging drummers in the Savannah music scene, in addition to building premier drum sets at the Gretsch Drum Factory for some of the most revered drummers in the world. Darien’s group, Whiskey and Wine, are one of the most prolific touring bands out of the Savannah scene. Linc has served in the Army for 12 years, as an Arabic linguist, and is now switching jobs in the Army to make music his full-time job. Linc’s lifelong passion has been music, and so when presented with a crossroads in his Army career, Linc auditioned for the Army Band in August 2021 and upon his successful audition, was offered a position in the Army Band as an audio production technician. While serving, Linc continues to write and record music, dedicating all of his free time to sharing his music with the world. His band is hot off the trails of recording their first full length-album, entitled Learning, to be released in May of 2022. It is a collection of 16 songs, all written and arranged by Linc, recorded in the span of 5 days in a cabin that harkens to the sorts of cathedral spaces rock giants Led Zeppelin recorded at in the 1970’s. Joined by a very special surprise guest to be announced on 19 November, Linc Bradham and the Various Possibilities will be performing a curated two hour (ish! They might be convinced to go late if enough people dance!), one night only show at High Rock Outfitters on Saturday, 4 December, starting at 8pm. They will be sharing a smattering of songs from their upcoming release, Learning, in addition to a few of your favorite classics from yesteryear. This is not a show to be missed.
