Listen to the NPR World Cafe interview/performance HERE.

“The reissue reprises early traces of a sonic sketching Rose-Garcia further defined for a decade to come.”—Tennesseasn

“…revisiting his debut from his early 20s opened up a lot of memories and a chance to reexamine how his ideals have changed.”—Forbes

“Ten years ago, Alejandro Rose-Garcia released his debut album as Shakey Graves, featuring songs rooted in the haunted blues of the American South. The Texas Americana and roots-rock musician holds forth on learning fingerpicking from a song by Kansas, the legendary Dr. John, sports metaphors, and the making of music not of this time.”—New Sounds

“Roll the Bones is a gentle, scrappy debut steeped in heartache and exploration of the self in a new city, reminiscent of folk-rock legends Tyrannosaurus Rex and Donovan.”—Flood Magazine

“This lo-fi style resulted in a distinctive ‘Shakey Grave’ sound that blends folk music with an array of unexpected elements.”—American Songwriter

“The album’s no-frills, garage-folk sound attracted a loyal following, varying between down-tempo, ominous poetry about hunting seals in Alaska; lighter, more carefree numbers about driving through Appalachia; and even the lone cover song, an edgy take on a Springsteen classic.”—The Bluegrass Situation

Shakey Graves is the brainchild of Alejandro Rose-Garcia, who released Roll The Bones on Bandcamp in 2011 without any promotion and little information about Shakey Graves. That year, Bandcamp made it a featured album for a month and from there it has stayed among the website’s top-selling records. Over the past decade the record has gone on to sell well over 100,000 units—despite being offered to fans on Bandcamp for “name your price”—and as a result Shakey Graves has garnered a massive cult following.

Accompanying the anniversary pressing are 15 additional tracks comprising an Odds + Ends LP, which stands as an essential document of Shakey Graves’ early era.

Shakey Graves has sold over 400,000 records to date, while garnering over 325 million streams worldwide. In 2014, following the release of And The War Came, Shakey Graves won an Americana Music Award for “Emerging Artist of the Year” and the album’s hit single “Dearly Departed” sold over 500,000 units in North America alone. The 2018 full band follow-up Can’t Wake Up was released to critical acclaim and Shakey Graves continued to tour relentlessly, including prestigious festival appearances both stateside and abroad. Not even the pandemic could pause Rose-Garcia’s penchant to create. In 2020 he released the Look Alive EP to coincide with an ongoing documentary/music video project, “Hello Gorgeous,” inspired by the name of his studio. Earlier this week, the “Hello Gorgeous” video project won “Best Online Series” as part of Austin Chronicle’s Austin Music Awards. Originally a solo music project, Shakey Graves now features a rotating cast of band members with varying setups and iterations.
