Louisiana native and Fort Myers Beach resident, guitarist, singer/songwriter Tag Graves succumbed to his battle with liver cancer and passed earlier today at the age of 60. An extremely versatile guitarist, Graves toured with Leon Russell for several years in the 1970's which allowed him the opportunity to play on stage with legends such as Eric Clapton, Rod Stewart, and Charlie Daniels. An accomplished songwriter in his own write, Tag also wrote and produced several solo albums.
In recent years, Tag has toured with the Flirting With Disaster Band and played solo gigs at watering holes along Fort Myers Beach and is well loved by both local patrons and regular tourists. Our thoughts and prayers are with Tag's family.
