    Shakey Graves is a folk rock songwriter who writes personal ballads with frenetic finger-picking guitar work and snarling, cacophonous tones. He first graced the stage as a solo act, performing with a suitcase modded into a kick drum/tambourine that is feverishly worked with booted heels. Shakey spent years road-testing this inimitable one man band, honing his craft and focusing on defining a unique sound. In 2014 he met songwriter Esme Patterson, solo performer and member of the Denver-based band Paper Bird. Together they wrote the smash hit, “Dearly Departed,” a song originally conceived on Halloween as a “tongue-in-cheek, haunted house sex joke.” Shakey toured tirelessly with Patterson in tow, performing across the country and paving the way for 2014’s “And the War Came,” his second LP and first official release. The tour became an introduction to his new, play-with-others style; a stark departure from his previous loner mountain man look. Shakey himself as spoken of the project as continuously evolving. His most recent iteration is a braggadocio-filled rock quartet, and his mesmerizing stage performance is a replication of his career’s story arc. It shuffles between solo and full band, reflecting the themes of “domestication and acknowledgement of the other” present on “And the War Came” by rotating through lineup variations. His style evolves to coincide with the music being created. Shakey has moved from the 10-gallon hat, tank top, and cowboy boots to more punk rock-influenced dark leather, flat brim, and sneakers. His project is in a constant state of change, but his Austin, Texas roots remain. Shakey is a songwriter filled with soul whose contemplative, poetic moments give way to bone-rattling growls from his trusty Loar guitar. Check out the performance by Shakey Graves on Audiotree Live.
    Recorded on November 6, 2015 in Chicago, IL.

    Love seems easy when it comes
    But the coming's just the first part
    Of having to leave

    So I tried a new direction,
    Ooh, a new mindset, a new state
    But running's what it is
    It's hard when you're a kid
    To find your place
    I know a gang of clever fellows
    We built a fort out in the woods
    We cuss and spit at all the girls
    Without a care in all the world
    Yeah, the living is good
    But now im supposed to grow
    Big and tall
    Seems like i dont get to wear my bare feet at all
    But when the storm is through
    My feet know what to do
    All roads lead to you
    I think i've grown a little thinner
    Without you riding my coattails
    I will trade it in all again
    For a nice stroll in your skin
    Just to cure what ails
    And I can see a palm tree
    From my chair
    So I don't really feel like going anywhere
    And even if I do
    It really is of no use
    Cause all roads lead to you
    I can see a palm tree
    From my chair
    So I dont really feel like
    Going anywhere
    But even if i do
    Its really of no use
    Cause all roads
    Lead to you
    I always try to please you
    I'm never getting any sleep
    Love seems easier when it comes
    But the coming's just the first part
    Of having to leave
    So maybe ill die
    A happy minstrel
    Or just a shadow of my former self
    I'd undo what I have done
    But lamenting's much more fun
    Guilt is bad for your health
    I can see a palm tree
    From my chair
    So I dont really feel like
    Going anywhere
    But even if i do
    Its really of no use
    Cause all roads
    Lead to you
    Yeah baby when my life is through
    I know just what to do
    Cause all roads lead to you
    Oh
