Contrary to the case of Graphene's pi band structure, the deeper lying sigma bands have attracted little attention. Here we present a detailed study of the sigma band structure using angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). Graphene is prepared on different substrates and it is compared with graphite and quasi free standing graphene (graphene which is lifted up by oxygen intercalation after growth on Ir(111)). We find that such bands hide an unexpected large interaction close to the Gamma-bar point. A 'kink' deviates the band from the expected dispersion of a non-interacting band, and a corresponding broadening of the line width is seen. The experiment is supported by a numerical simulation of the many-body interaction, such that the nature of the kink can be probed. We conclude that electron phonon coupling plays a significant role and can satisfactorily account for the observed strong kink.
