Shakey Graves
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.
