I have waited years to see Shakey Graves live and honestly it was worth the wait. His amazing talent combined with his natural charm and showmanship made the whole show outstanding. He played every song I hoped he would and each was superb. So hope he comes back to Brighton again, I will be buying tickets as soon as they get released! Also Leif Vollebekk was also outstanding. Hadn't heard of him before last night but will be following his work closely from now on. A very unique style and voice that made for a fantastic opener. Again, come back to Brighton soon!

Shakey Graves, Chalk, Brighton - 1st June 2019
Across his career, Shakey Graves—a.k.a. the performance moniker of Austin, Texas-born Alejandro Rose-Garcia—has intentionally created thrilling musical adventures tailored to each fan: burning CDs and putting them in personalized decorated bags; building intricate scavenger hunts that send fans in search of unique tapes; and Bandcamp-exclusive releases.
"The fans and musicians that really resonate with me—and the inexplicable ways that I find things that I like—are usually entirely through randomness and chaos and accident," Rose-Garcia says. "I've always been on this quest to make people feel like my own music is a choose your own adventure."
In 2024 Rose-Garcia celebrated the ten year anniversary of his And The War Came album with a special 10 Year Anniversary Edition release featuring never before heard demos and b-sides from the recording process and inviting fans to enter the long-since abandoned Music House.
His story continues to unfold, but Shakey Graves Is Still A Gentleman From Texas.
