Guitarists Grant Hewett and Ray Hoes met four years ago as members of Margaret River’s Riversong Choir and have been performing together ever since.

A former saxophonist, Ray transitioned to guitar 25 years ago and hasn’t looked back. With a
focus on finger-style guitar, his influences include Sting, James Taylor, and John Martyn.

Grant, a self-described “strictly rhythm” guitarist, began playing in his early teens. While his
musical inspirations are diverse, he has a deep affinity for American Country and the vocal
harmonies of legends like the Everly Brothers, Simon & Garfunkel, and the Eagles.

As The Graymen, the duo play and sing a range of styles and genres featuring distinctive
guitar riffs and vocal harmonies.

About Young@HEART

The Young@HEART music program is held at Margaret River HEART every Monday morning from 10am to 11am. The program does not run on public holidays or when there is another major event in the foyer.

The initiative was developed to safely encourage participation in the arts among older residents (over 60s) during the initial stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Due to high interest, the free performances have since been opened to people of all ages. Nonetheless, the senior demographic still makes up the majority of the audience.

Young@Heart is broadcast live on Radio Margaret River
