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.

Being a shakey graves fan is constantly being surprised by the varied and amazingly new renditions of his songs he always does. It’s a fucking treat. He’s incredible
Oh
Oh dear
A rotten summer, a rotten whole year
Where
Where we
Wait to lose our friends and family
Welcome to 2020. This song moves me to tears, Shakey.
Saw Shakey live last night and was literally brought to tears when he played this song. They’re absolutely nuts, SG’s energy on stage is electrifying. Honestly it might have been one of the best shows I’ve ever seen.
This man/band puts your soul back inside you
That hit me like a ton of bricks
👆🏻👆🏻Said it here first... and best
My favorite version by far
Love him best live. Ran into him on the streets of Atlanta and saw him in concert. This song live, in person, gives you chills. 😍
I was legally required to listen to this song
This man has one of the best man voice ever!
Give this man 500k. And see what music and sounds he makes 👍👍👍👍🤯😍😍
Loved this song the first time I heard it on Pandora about 3 years ago. Probably on my Lord Huron station. Whole album is 🔥🔥🔥. And this song is perfect for 2020 especially for that one line.. a rotten month.. a rotten whole year. 💜💜💜
Love this dude. He's got it all, THE WHOLE PACKAGE💜💜❤️❤️
Are you married? No.
Would you like to be? No.
Why not? 'Cause I'm not ready to get married.
Do you play any musical instruments? No.
What do you look for in...in a boy? Looks. That's about all.
You don't look for personality? No.
What are your plans for the future? I don't have any.
You don't have any plans at all? Would you like to go to college? No.
Would you like to go to business school? No.
Do you have a nickname? Sometimes people call me... things... I'd rather not say!
Underrated
I think that what makes him unique is being a one man band and still produce such good music. The collab with these guys is pretty awesome, but I feel he should keep on going as solo.
+Juan Arreguin He's been playing with the drummer for a long time...
Love this song. Love this band.
This is a talented musician, producing quality music. Feast your ears upon him. All hail Shakey!
This is my fav song by Shakey!
HypnotizeNLP me2
My dad David and his grandfather Dean are brothers so I can say I'm related to Shakey Graves.
Shakey Graves...PLEASE come to Florida!
BEST version
Tessa Maye Easily
This reminds me of Kings of a Leon!
I wish this version was on Spotify 🔊
A little late, but it is now!
@@AJ-jy7ht Not too late! Thanks for letting me know!!
wish granted
Welcome to goosebump town.
Genius 🤘🏼🤘🏽🤘🏾
Love this guy
Great song, he just did it different..
I love shakey and I love this version of the song. Personally I would really like to see this band/style go in a more garage or jammy direction
kellowjo Im with ya on the jammy stuff. The folky stuff is good too but only because theyre so talented. Sure does sound like they like playing the jammy more too...
Amazing
shakey"s style is very unique...
Quality 👌🏻👌🏻🍀👌🏻
Really do enjoy his solo stuff a lot better.
+travelingrrrl713 I sort of agree. It's a bit more freeing and makes him stand out, being able to sing, play guitar and play a two piece percussion all at the same time.
***** Yeah, it just felt a little passionate, you could really feel how into it he was when he was all the instruments at once.
You crazy?
For sure but it's all pretty damn good.
heaven
BTW, ROLL THE BONES IS THE BEST SONG EVER MADE❤️❤️💗👍
I can't wait for you to come to Thunder Bay!!!! I have to meet you shakey:)
+Gabe Nidon I want to meet him too! I look up to him so much for his musical talent.
+SammyJ I love him as well, roll the bones helped me through a breakup 😁 and this song right here is mellow and uplifting for me! Ahaha happy to see another fan!
God, SAME
yee alejandro❤️❤️❤️❤️
woohooooo
4:36 are those octaves? I cant figure out what hes doing!
Came here after the surfing movie -“Under an Arctic Sky “
I Love Shakey. This song really isn't his style, but its still really good!
+SammyJ I like to believe if it's his song, then it's his style.
Maybe just not the style you're use to hearing.
+Claytone Fair point. I've been listening to him for a while now. Love ever note. It's cool that he's trying new sounds and new styles, to me that makes him less of a musician, and more of an artist.
Does he say "Rotten summer, a rotten hope dear" or is it "rotten summer, a rotten whole year"
Rotten whole year
you forgot enemies.
Wait...
Couldn't understand a word he said. Too much gusto.
