Known for a smoky, spectral fusion of blues, folk, and rock, Shakey Graves is the stage name of Texas singer, songwriter, and guitarist Alejandro Rose-Garcia. Shakey Graves began as a one-man band of epic sonic proportions: the sound emitted from Rose-Garcia’s hollow body guitar, mildly distorted amp, and suitcase drum belying the young singer’s lean frame. He fingerpicked while keeping time with a double-pedal kick drum, hitting a snare fitted into his suitcase drum and a tambourine fashioned to its side. Now appearing with a 5-piece band, the verve and charisma of these performances have allowed the Austin-based Shakey Graves to parlay grassroots success of his homespun 2011 debut, Roll the Bones, into national visibility — he’s been going strong ever since.

“Twangy, blues-rooted Americana that charms your socks off, the kind fit for dancing barefoot on a back porch in the southern heat.” – NPR
