00:00:15.359 --> 00:00:17.679
Hello, welcome to Grateful Roots.
00:02:31.439 --> 00:02:33.120
I've got it.
00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:01.199
Stephen Egan here.
00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:05.919
Welcome to this Grateful Roots special on Shaky Graves.
00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:09.120
Yes, he's been out there now, he's aged 39.
00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:15.439
First came to my attention a few years ago when he received the Emerging Artist Award.
00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:20.240
That was the Americana Music Award, and that was 2015.
00:03:20.719 --> 00:03:25.840
I kinda haven't seen heard that much about him since that is uh eleven years ago now.
00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:34.319
But I just said, look, he's out there, he's doing things doing touring around the place, so put together shaky grave special.
00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:42.560
So I had to go fishing through a lot of stuff and listen to things and so on.
00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:44.719
But sometimes that's that's interesting.
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:47.439
The less you know, the more interesting it can be sometimes.
00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:56.240
Great for Root's contact details, our Great For Root's music as for X for Gmail and also for our website.
00:03:56.479 --> 00:04:03.759
Let's play a second one now from Shaky Graves, Alejandro Rose Garcia being his real name.
00:04:03.919 --> 00:04:05.439
This is O Drain.
00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:06.879
This is from his first album.
00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:47.120
Behind the back we stayed every day, don't start the rest of your life, trailing behind, don't you know?
00:05:47.519 --> 00:06:22.160
And we have a second gray.
00:07:02.480 --> 00:07:05.920
Don't expect much for the rest of your life.
00:08:02.079 --> 00:08:07.600
Shaky Graves from his uh first album, twenty eleven, Roll the Bones.
00:08:08.319 --> 00:08:13.600
And the first track I played on the show today was called Devil May Care.
00:08:13.839 --> 00:08:20.560
Shaky Graves, he's aged uh 39, born on the 4th of June 1987, he's from Austin, Texas.
00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:27.839
Most of his first uh self-released debut album called Roll the Bones uh features him playing solo.
00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:43.600
And uh the setup originated after he grew tired of having to borrow kick drums and hi-hats in order to perform, and his solution was a modified suitcase that functions as both a kick drum and a tambourine stand built by a close friend.
00:08:43.919 --> 00:08:53.440
Well, he just gets on it because maybe he started a Lonnie Donnegan school of music and Lonnie Donegan special check it out there.
00:08:54.080 --> 00:09:11.120
Anyway, his unique style of performance led to being asked to be the official busker for the Edward Sharp and the Mumford and Sons Railroad Revival Tour in 2011, where he was asked to play music for patrons entering each venue.
00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:12.159
Let's move on.
00:09:12.240 --> 00:09:14.720
Another one called uh Cops and Rubbers.
00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:20.799
I might be the worst, but you know the best.
00:09:21.120 --> 00:09:24.720
You drive the car, I'll do the rest the best.
00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:33.600
We take an off you never know how fast you run.
00:12:38.799 --> 00:12:41.279
It being called Can't Wake Up.
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:48.960
He's not all that prolific, he's five studio albums as it happens, and he has a new album that came out in 2026.
00:12:49.039 --> 00:12:51.120
We playing something from it as well.
00:12:53.120 --> 00:12:57.600
But uh just to get back to his first album, Roll Them Bones.
00:13:00.240 --> 00:16:20.080
And this is one from a call Dusty Lion So here, just worse keys of course comes the way the world changes.
00:17:55.759 --> 00:17:57.359
Roll the Bones.
00:17:57.680 --> 00:17:59.440
That was Dusty Lion.
00:17:59.759 --> 00:18:07.200
You can see uh Shaky Graves, it's a you know, obviously it's a it's a rather macabre type of name, I suppose, if that's the right term.
00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:19.920
But so seeing here how he got his name, and he said that uh they were at some music festival, an old settlers music festival in 2002 in the stranger remarked spooky wagons.
00:18:20.640 --> 00:18:22.000
Spooky wagons, yeah.
00:18:22.480 --> 00:18:32.480
Anyway, so then he and his friends jokingly gave each other Native American guide names over the campfire, and Shakey decided to keep his name.
00:18:32.640 --> 00:18:36.720
Remember his real name, to keep his stage name as as suggested.
00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:40.960
His real name, as I said earlier, was Alejandro Rose Gar.
00:18:41.759 --> 00:18:44.160
A lot of spooky names also in the names of his songs.
00:18:44.240 --> 00:18:50.720
We started off there when uh called Devil May Care, but it's not really spooky, but you can see there's a God connection, shall we say?
00:18:50.960 --> 00:18:57.200
Then we have the title track itself, Roll the Bones, we will be playing later in the programme.
00:18:57.440 --> 00:19:05.920
Also, there's a song there called um coming up now in a minute we'll begin the uh beginning the next night.
00:19:06.480 --> 00:19:08.799
Then we got uh Julie the one.
00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:08.319
Could you wait to come?
00:20:13.680 --> 00:20:19.599
The children pray the reach of read and command the sea.
00:20:24.240 --> 00:20:28.240
I'll fix your feet till you can walk.
00:20:28.400 --> 00:20:30.079
I like your joy.
00:20:35.279 --> 00:20:41.599
I'll close your eyes so you can see this very I'll come.
00:20:46.799 --> 00:21:59.759

00:24:15.759 --> 00:24:18.079
This is live Shaky Graves.
00:26:44.079 --> 00:26:52.240
Put him on the shelf, put them in a magazine, put 'em in the corner, put em on the sword screen.
00:26:53.039 --> 00:26:56.720
I never shouldn't do a never dream.
00:26:57.279 --> 00:27:00.880
I never worry about the news and green.
00:27:01.519 --> 00:27:16.079
I like to think I am straight inside But the truth is I am just so hungry.
00:27:18.799 --> 00:27:26.240
Well I think it was the gun bang bang I'm hungry with me.
00:27:28.000 --> 00:27:32.079
But now the gone is over.
00:27:36.640 --> 00:27:56.640
I guess you further up before changing further out.
00:28:10.319 --> 00:28:24.640
Straight to the bottom of the pushing one, straight two, bottom pushing one, straight two, bottom pushing one, straight two, bottom.
00:29:10.720 --> 00:29:11.440
Shaky Grave.
00:29:19.279 --> 00:29:22.799
Just getting back to that old daddy, old dad's only forward.
00:32:00.799 --> 00:32:01.680
Shaky Graves.
00:32:01.920 --> 00:32:08.400
Just thinking as I was listening to it, that wouldn't be a bad theme song for an appropriate radio show or whatever.
00:32:08.720 --> 00:32:11.359
One minute and uh fifty seconds or so.
00:32:16.240 --> 00:32:17.759
Is this David Bowie?
00:32:19.200 --> 00:32:21.200
No, it's Shaky Graves.
00:32:24.240 --> 00:35:46.800
Low Life, Twenty Twenty Three album.
00:35:51.920 --> 00:35:53.840
Called Movie of the Week.
00:35:54.880 --> 00:35:57.760
That track is called Low Light.
00:36:01.920 --> 00:36:06.960
And I suppose it's a bit of the old rock and roll in there, a bit of synthesizers and so forth.
00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:10.079
Just showing there's no real boundaries, I suppose.
00:36:10.159 --> 00:36:11.119
That is what he's at.
00:36:11.519 --> 00:36:14.800
Remember, he only has five studio albums.
00:36:15.119 --> 00:36:23.199
And uh oh, his album, by the way, in 1977 was hello, that's when he shifted to the big synthesizers sound.
00:36:23.440 --> 00:36:27.599
And the big track on it was sound and vision.
00:36:27.920 --> 00:36:30.079
You may know, or you may remember.
00:36:57.039 --> 00:37:03.920
So he would never have to fight and never have to lose.
00:37:11.119 --> 00:37:20.639
Have I wander in many love ever ponder?
00:37:27.360 --> 00:37:38.320
Ever squander on my way, on my way, on my way, on my way, on my way back home.
00:37:55.119 --> 00:40:35.679

00:40:35.840 --> 00:40:37.199
What was the name of the first album?
00:40:37.840 --> 00:40:39.679
Roll them at the bones.
00:40:39.840 --> 00:40:43.840
This is one from it called Lonely Hill, the alternative version.
00:40:45.599 --> 00:40:46.480
Alright, here we go.
00:40:46.559 --> 00:40:48.000
One, two, three.
00:41:05.360 --> 00:41:07.519
But well worth the climb.
00:41:09.039 --> 00:41:11.280
Yeah, well worth the climb.
00:41:16.960 --> 00:41:22.079
Oh, and girl, it's a long road, but well worth the ride.
00:41:23.679 --> 00:41:43.360
Yeah, do go Oh, if I won't lock key, then my life will be easy.
00:41:46.559 --> 00:41:50.800
One day you'll just hurry up and die.
00:41:52.719 --> 00:41:58.480
And that'll be the one day that you just don't ask why.
00:42:00.239 --> 00:42:04.559
There'll be this look on your face, wishing someone at a camera.
00:42:05.039 --> 00:42:29.039
Oh, but nobody will be this look on your face, wishing us standing there at the top of life, slowly, but well worth your climb Well worth the climb.
00:42:30.480 --> 00:42:32.559
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:42:37.760 --> 00:42:39.440
Oh well worth right.
00:42:50.400 --> 00:42:52.639
Hello, funny sounds, all right.
00:42:52.800 --> 00:42:56.320
Lonely Hill alternative version.
00:42:56.960 --> 00:42:59.679
Uh let's play one now called I Once Was an Ocean.
00:42:59.760 --> 00:43:06.000
We've got a good one coming up after this, um involving a co-writer, a female artist.
00:43:06.400 --> 00:43:10.719
But first, I once was an ocean.
00:48:12.800 --> 00:48:14.880
I once was an ocean.
00:48:15.360 --> 00:48:16.960
All those weird sounds.
00:48:17.199 --> 00:48:17.760
This is art.
00:48:17.920 --> 00:48:22.639
We have to show you these things to show you the kind of versatility of the artist.
00:48:22.880 --> 00:48:26.960
That's from his 2026 album, Fondness.
00:48:27.360 --> 00:48:30.880
Got a good one coming up featuring a female artist of him next.
00:48:31.519 --> 00:48:33.760
She'll be on two tracks today anyway.
00:48:33.840 --> 00:48:36.719
But the first the Grateful Roots specials.
00:48:36.960 --> 00:49:00.400

I keep saying Lucinda there, Linda Ronst.
00:49:02.480 --> 00:49:07.519
I'm gonna put a big red note on that one to kind of prompt me just before we get to it all the time because that's happening a lot.
00:49:07.760 --> 00:49:26.960
Anyway, the band Bruce Springsteen, Joni Mitchell, uh Hollywood Mac Three Part Special, Everly Brothers, Leonard Cone, Janicean, Lonnie Donegan, Little Feet, Steve Earl, Robert Plant, Grateful Dead, Mary Shape and the Carpenter, the Furies, Merrill Haggard, Aggs Connolly, there are a lot of the uh individual artists.

00:49:54.960 --> 00:50:00.800
If you take a look at Grateful Root Music dot com, this is a big time Nashville star.
00:50:01.199 --> 00:50:02.159
Tell you about it afterwards.
00:52:06.480 --> 00:52:18.960
Just try to get always trying to take our row.
00:54:25.119 --> 00:54:28.079
Shaky Graves also features Esme Patterson.
00:54:28.400 --> 00:54:33.519
Now, Esme Patterson I've been playing the second track by her shortly in a couple of songs.
00:54:33.920 --> 00:54:37.840
She's an American gold-selling recording artist in the US and Canada.
00:54:38.079 --> 00:54:43.920
She's originally from Denver, uh, Colorado, and she currently is residing in Nashville, Tennessee.
00:54:44.400 --> 00:54:57.760
And uh she's about uh forty years of age or so, and she's been out there doing quite a lot of things, or looking at her resume here on Wikipedia, and it's quite lengthy, so I wouldn't be able to go into it all, but certainly I she was on the first album as far as know goes.
00:54:57.840 --> 00:55:02.639
The details are very hard to to get clarification on, but she seems to be on his first album.
00:55:03.039 --> 00:55:05.360
If not other albums, but certainly his first album.
00:55:05.840 --> 00:55:08.960
And um certainly as far as certain as I can be.
00:55:09.280 --> 00:55:11.840
But uh it's possible that she co-wrote that song as well.
00:55:11.920 --> 00:55:14.480
Again, it's not impossible to fully confirm it.
00:55:14.800 --> 00:55:21.599
It appears that she wrote three tracks, co-wrote three tracks on his first album and uh it appears that was on his first album.
00:55:22.000 --> 00:55:28.480
And uh but certainly the next one that she did co-write, which will be playing shortly, but just to give her her fair uh credit.
00:55:28.880 --> 00:55:34.639
And uh her name's just features on the track as well, so I'm sure that's part of the contractual agreements as well.
00:55:34.960 --> 00:55:41.920
She's up there with him, kind of at the same level and so forth, and uh I'm sure she's out there cracking away as we speak.
00:55:43.119 --> 00:55:45.840
Back to Roll the Old Bones, the first album.
00:55:48.400 --> 00:55:53.199
And this is uh I was gonna say Shaky Town, but it's Chinatown.
00:56:16.559 --> 00:56:22.480
This heart of mine keeps decent time.
00:56:25.679 --> 00:56:47.440
Though my ears may be weak, my eyes may be all black, I still have sense enough to feel that I'm not much without being.
00:56:50.000 --> 00:57:17.119
I've paid my due love one or two, but still it keeps a boiling bound to you so choose to be my victory for my eyes Oh, either way.
00:57:18.239 --> 00:57:25.519
I still want you here to night wow, you love that.
00:58:07.599 --> 00:58:14.800
Oh hell no, it's got a home of folks like me.
00:58:16.880 --> 00:58:23.119
There will come a day when the earth will cease to spin.
00:58:25.280 --> 00:58:31.840
Hold me close and say, My God, where have you been?
00:58:36.800 --> 00:59:07.519
I've been around old Chinatown Happy Lost County the stars above the hill Neath some old calming mighto.
00:59:10.159 --> 00:59:35.119
I'll see you Chinatown shaky graves now just uh a few of the things about the guy, it it's very sparse what's out there, so I don't have a huge amount of material to work off, and just those points that are made about Esme Patterson being on the first album, it appears that may refer actually to the second album.
00:59:35.199 --> 00:59:35.840
It's a bit unclear.
00:59:36.000 --> 00:59:43.039
See, there are a few compilations, anthologies have been issued, and sometimes I'm taking these tracks from the anthologies, and it's it's a bit unclear.
00:59:43.599 --> 00:59:49.119
But nevertheless, the most important thing is pretty music, as I'm sure you will all agree.
00:59:57.440 --> 01:00:05.519
And every year between a certain date in February, Shaky offers all of his music as pay as you want prices.
01:00:06.000 --> 01:00:12.719
And exclusive merchandise and content is also created and released with Shaky Graves Day.
01:00:13.119 --> 01:00:23.840
And a portion of the proceeds made from sales through Bandcamp and Shaky Graves Day concert are donated to the charity of Shaky Graves' choice.
01:00:25.920 --> 01:00:28.400
So watch out in Feb 2027.
01:00:28.960 --> 01:00:31.280
You might get some knockdown prices.
01:00:32.239 --> 01:00:36.239
All a bit shaky, you know, but nevertheless, it all helps.
01:00:36.639 --> 01:00:39.280
This is one from his 2026 album.
01:00:41.039 --> 01:00:42.960
Don't change a thing.
01:01:18.079 --> 01:01:26.320
So I tried and muscle through, try to put my back into your corporate pride.
01:01:33.920 --> 01:01:38.559
Uh can I clean my gun three week all night?
01:01:43.360 --> 01:01:47.519
Spending all my money tryna kill the time.
01:01:55.679 --> 01:01:59.840
Wasting all this breath, trying to make it right.
01:02:06.719 --> 01:02:33.039
Don't change things on Don't change things.
01:03:14.079 --> 01:03:15.920
Don't change the thing.
01:04:27.360 --> 01:04:28.960
Don't change a thing.
01:04:47.920 --> 01:04:51.519
Album called uh Fondness, isn't that what it's called?
01:04:51.679 --> 01:04:53.119
Yes, it's called Fondness.
01:04:53.280 --> 01:04:56.159
I'll just take a quick check there because I don't allude you astray.
01:04:56.239 --> 01:05:00.320
Yeah, fondness well, strictly speaking, it's fondness, etc., I think is the name.
01:05:00.719 --> 01:05:13.119
Um three songs to go now, and um I think this is the kind of podcast I should probably need to play it uh more than once really to get the feeling for Shaggy and just to absorb it all because it is it's interesting.
01:05:14.000 --> 01:05:18.559
It's it's a different type of uh thing than maybe we've done heretofore.
01:05:18.639 --> 01:05:22.800
It's um it sound is uh very singular, is all I would say.
01:05:22.880 --> 01:05:28.559
And I I just learned a lot about his music and of course I'm preparing for their show and so forth.
01:05:28.639 --> 01:05:34.159
And some of the songs are beginning to sink in now a little bit because I kind of heard him a few times or or parted him a few times and so forth.
01:05:34.400 --> 01:05:36.719
And I think you'll you'll get the benefit of it as well.
01:05:36.880 --> 01:05:42.800
I'm not just trying to get our numbers up front, I'm just I'm just saying to you what my objective feeling is on the matter.
01:05:43.039 --> 01:05:52.159
He's very much the kind of guy I would say who's gonna do his own thing and um you know, we see where where where where that leads him as such.
01:05:52.400 --> 01:05:59.440
And uh since since twenty fifteen, since he was got the emerging uh artist order uh and Americana.
01:06:01.679 --> 01:06:04.079
So um slowly doing what he's doing.
01:06:04.239 --> 01:06:10.320
He also does a bit of acting, by the way, and in uh Friday Night Light and the Sky Kids franchise.
01:06:10.719 --> 01:06:14.880
Not something that I've um known too much about, to be honest.
01:06:15.199 --> 01:06:18.239
We're getting back to that artist I mentioned, Esme Patterson.
01:06:18.559 --> 01:06:23.039
And this is one that she did co-write with and definitely did, and it's dearly departed.
01:06:24.719 --> 01:06:26.320
Shaky Graves.
01:07:12.079 --> 01:07:16.480
Well back then, baby, it didn't seem so strange.
01:07:19.519 --> 01:07:20.719
I used to moan.
01:08:07.760 --> 01:08:10.000
I was looking for my crystal bottle.
01:08:10.079 --> 01:08:16.079
I was busy trying to come out like we had to go.
01:08:40.640 --> 01:08:45.039
Well back to the lady, it didn't seem so strange.
01:08:52.079 --> 01:08:55.039
It still takes you to make the house.
01:09:02.079 --> 01:09:04.399
I hear you call my name, but no one's there.
01:09:04.960 --> 01:09:06.000
Except for me.
01:09:11.520 --> 01:09:15.600
You and I mum with no, the house is a human.
01:09:16.880 --> 01:09:24.560
Yeah, you and I'm on the mo, the house is a you soaming.
01:09:59.920 --> 01:10:04.159
It reminded me for whatever reason, just in a vague type of way, I won't push it.
01:10:04.399 --> 01:10:07.359
You're the one that I want uh from Greece.
01:10:09.680 --> 01:10:16.000
Well, this is the pen ultimate track on this Grateful Roots Shaky Graves podcast.
01:10:17.119 --> 01:10:19.039
And this is tomorrow.
01:10:29.039 --> 01:10:32.000
Well, I'm tired of illusion.
01:10:32.560 --> 01:10:36.640
I used to win every night of the week.
01:10:47.439 --> 01:10:51.680
You used to tell me we turned into something.
01:10:52.399 --> 01:10:55.920
Oh, you said life was much better than this.
01:10:57.600 --> 01:11:11.199
Yeah, but the closest I come to perfection is when you turn around to steal a kiss, but you never trusted tomorrow.
01:11:12.399 --> 01:11:16.800
Yeah, baby's had any way to live your life.
01:11:18.000 --> 01:11:25.199
Well, you love this heart and this extreme girl, but they've been out of tune.
01:11:26.560 --> 01:11:55.600
Yeah, for some time Well, you say, Oh, I love so many women, only so many women love, and driving me wild.
01:11:56.800 --> 01:12:05.279
Here they say, Oh, you get lost in complexion and the structure of a well-placed smile.
01:12:06.239 --> 01:12:12.880
But luckily, Oh, you never smile.
01:12:16.319 --> 01:12:23.760
Here are you Oh, you never smile.
01:12:25.279 --> 01:12:28.960
Oh, and it looks just a little bit better that way to me.
01:12:31.199 --> 01:12:32.960
Sometimes it does.
01:12:42.399 --> 01:12:44.159
Trust in tomorrow.
01:12:45.199 --> 01:12:48.720
Oh, maybe that's just a problem of mine.
01:12:50.399 --> 01:12:54.880
Yeah, I've been thrown around by some bad ones, girl.
01:12:55.199 --> 01:12:58.960
Oh, and a good one was a new thing this time.
01:12:59.920 --> 01:13:08.560
Yeah, but you showed me that I couldn't be farther over from the truth of the problem at hand.
01:13:10.000 --> 01:13:13.760
Oh, I could never say baby tomorrow.
01:13:14.960 --> 01:13:17.359
Oh, I'll be right there.
01:13:19.359 --> 01:13:31.520
I'll be your man of all your manual.
01:13:58.239 --> 01:14:01.359
Tomorrow Shaky Graves.
01:14:13.760 --> 01:14:15.359
Well, that's it folks.
01:14:15.600 --> 01:14:18.720
I've done my best under shaky circumstances.
01:14:19.039 --> 01:14:22.399
This is the last one, it's the big one, roll the bones.
01:14:23.760 --> 01:14:28.079
Probably fair to say that at this stage, Shaky is a cult artist.
01:14:28.640 --> 01:14:30.319
Let's see how he develops in time.
01:14:30.560 --> 01:14:33.600
Maybe he's wearing a bit of the Tom Waits hat at this stage.
01:14:35.119 --> 01:14:39.039
Just for me to say thanks for listening, Shaky Graves.
01:14:50.960 --> 01:18:40.399

00:00:15.359 --> 00:00:17.679
Hello, welcome to Grateful Roots.
00:02:31.439 --> 00:02:33.120
I've got it.
00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:01.199
Stephen Egan here.
00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:05.919
Welcome to this Grateful Roots special on Shaky Graves.
00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:09.120
Yes, he's been out there now, he's aged 39.
00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:15.439
First came to my attention a few years ago when he received the Emerging Artist Award.
00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:20.240
That was the Americana Music Award, and that was 2015.
00:03:20.719 --> 00:03:25.840
I kinda haven't seen heard that much about him since that is uh eleven years ago now.
00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:34.319
But I just said, look, he's out there, he's doing things doing touring around the place, so put together shaky grave special.
00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:42.560
So I had to go fishing through a lot of stuff and listen to things and so on.
00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:44.719
But sometimes that's that's interesting.
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:47.439
The less you know, the more interesting it can be sometimes.
00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:56.240
Great for Root's contact details, our Great For Root's music as for X for Gmail and also for our website.
00:03:56.479 --> 00:04:03.759
Let's play a second one now from Shaky Graves, Alejandro Rose Garcia being his real name.
00:04:03.919 --> 00:04:05.439
This is O Drain.
00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:06.879
This is from his first album.
00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:47.120
Behind the back we stayed every day, don't start the rest of your life, trailing behind, don't you know?
00:05:47.519 --> 00:06:22.160
And we have a second gray.
00:07:02.480 --> 00:07:05.920
Don't expect much for the rest of your life.
00:08:02.079 --> 00:08:07.600
Shaky Graves from his uh first album, twenty eleven, Roll the Bones.
00:08:08.319 --> 00:08:13.600
And the first track I played on the show today was called Devil May Care.
00:08:13.839 --> 00:08:20.560
Shaky Graves, he's aged uh 39, born on the 4th of June 1987, he's from Austin, Texas.
00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:27.839
Most of his first uh self-released debut album called Roll the Bones uh features him playing solo.
00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:43.600
And uh the setup originated after he grew tired of having to borrow kick drums and hi-hats in order to perform, and his solution was a modified suitcase that functions as both a kick drum and a tambourine stand built by a close friend.
00:08:43.919 --> 00:08:53.440
Well, he just gets on it because maybe he started a Lonnie Donnegan school of music and Lonnie Donegan special check it out there.
00:08:54.080 --> 00:09:11.120
Anyway, his unique style of performance led to being asked to be the official busker for the Edward Sharp and the Mumford and Sons Railroad Revival Tour in 2011, where he was asked to play music for patrons entering each venue.
00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:12.159
Let's move on.
00:09:12.240 --> 00:09:14.720
Another one called uh Cops and Rubbers.
00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:20.799
I might be the worst, but you know the best.
00:09:21.120 --> 00:09:24.720
You drive the car, I'll do the rest the best.
00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:33.600
We take an off you never know how fast you run.
00:12:38.799 --> 00:12:41.279
It being called Can't Wake Up.
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:48.960
He's not all that prolific, he's five studio albums as it happens, and he has a new album that came out in 2026.
00:12:49.039 --> 00:12:51.120
We playing something from it as well.
00:12:53.120 --> 00:12:57.600
But uh just to get back to his first album, Roll Them Bones.
00:13:00.240 --> 00:16:20.080
And this is one from a call Dusty Lion So here, just worse keys of course comes the way the world changes.
00:17:55.759 --> 00:17:57.359
Roll the Bones.
00:17:57.680 --> 00:17:59.440
That was Dusty Lion.
00:17:59.759 --> 00:18:07.200
You can see uh Shaky Graves, it's a you know, obviously it's a it's a rather macabre type of name, I suppose, if that's the right term.
00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:19.920
But so seeing here how he got his name, and he said that uh they were at some music festival, an old settlers music festival in 2002 in the stranger remarked spooky wagons.
00:18:20.640 --> 00:18:22.000
Spooky wagons, yeah.
00:18:22.480 --> 00:18:32.480
Anyway, so then he and his friends jokingly gave each other Native American guide names over the campfire, and Shakey decided to keep his name.
00:18:32.640 --> 00:18:36.720
Remember his real name, to keep his stage name as as suggested.
00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:40.960
His real name, as I said earlier, was Alejandro Rose Gar.
00:18:41.759 --> 00:18:44.160
A lot of spooky names also in the names of his songs.
00:18:44.240 --> 00:18:50.720
We started off there when uh called Devil May Care, but it's not really spooky, but you can see there's a God connection, shall we say?
00:18:50.960 --> 00:18:57.200
Then we have the title track itself, Roll the Bones, we will be playing later in the programme.
00:18:57.440 --> 00:19:05.920
Also, there's a song there called um coming up now in a minute we'll begin the uh beginning the next night.
00:19:06.480 --> 00:19:08.799
Then we got uh Julie the one.
00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:08.319
Could you wait to come?
00:20:13.680 --> 00:20:19.599
The children pray the reach of read and command the sea.
00:20:24.240 --> 00:20:28.240
I'll fix your feet till you can walk.
00:20:28.400 --> 00:20:30.079
I like your joy.
00:20:35.279 --> 00:20:41.599
I'll close your eyes so you can see this very I'll come.

00:24:15.759 --> 00:24:18.079
This is live Shaky Graves.
00:26:44.079 --> 00:26:52.240
Put him on the shelf, put them in a magazine, put 'em in the corner, put em on the sword screen.
00:26:53.039 --> 00:26:56.720
I never shouldn't do a never dream.
00:26:57.279 --> 00:27:00.880
I never worry about the news and green.
00:27:01.519 --> 00:27:16.079
I like to think I am straight inside But the truth is I am just so hungry.
00:27:18.799 --> 00:27:26.240
Well I think it was the gun bang bang I'm hungry with me.
00:27:28.000 --> 00:27:32.079
But now the gone is over.
00:27:36.640 --> 00:27:56.640
I guess you further up before changing further out.
00:28:10.319 --> 00:28:24.640
Straight to the bottom of the pushing one, straight two, bottom pushing one, straight two, bottom pushing one, straight two, bottom.
00:29:10.720 --> 00:29:11.440
Shaky Grave.
00:29:19.279 --> 00:29:22.799
Just getting back to that old daddy, old dad's only forward.
00:32:00.799 --> 00:32:01.680
Shaky Graves.
00:32:01.920 --> 00:32:08.400
Just thinking as I was listening to it, that wouldn't be a bad theme song for an appropriate radio show or whatever.
00:32:08.720 --> 00:32:11.359
One minute and uh fifty seconds or so.
00:32:16.240 --> 00:32:17.759
Is this David Bowie?
00:32:19.200 --> 00:32:21.200
No, it's Shaky Graves.
00:32:24.240 --> 00:35:46.800
Low Life, Twenty Twenty Three album.
00:35:51.920 --> 00:35:53.840
Called Movie of the Week.
00:35:54.880 --> 00:35:57.760
That track is called Low Light.
00:36:01.920 --> 00:36:06.960
And I suppose it's a bit of the old rock and roll in there, a bit of synthesizers and so forth.
00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:10.079
Just showing there's no real boundaries, I suppose.
00:36:10.159 --> 00:36:11.119
That is what he's at.
00:36:11.519 --> 00:36:14.800
Remember, he only has five studio albums.
00:36:15.119 --> 00:36:23.199
And uh oh, his album, by the way, in 1977 was hello, that's when he shifted to the big synthesizers sound.
00:36:23.440 --> 00:36:27.599
And the big track on it was sound and vision.
00:36:27.920 --> 00:36:30.079
You may know, or you may remember.
00:36:57.039 --> 00:37:03.920
So he would never have to fight and never have to lose.
00:37:11.119 --> 00:37:20.639
Have I wander in many love ever ponder?
00:37:27.360 --> 00:37:38.320

00:40:35.840 --> 00:40:37.199
What was the name of the first album?
00:40:37.840 --> 00:40:39.679
Roll them at the bones.
00:40:39.840 --> 00:40:43.840
This is one from it called Lonely Hill, the alternative version.
00:40:45.599 --> 00:40:46.480
Alright, here we go.
00:40:46.559 --> 00:40:48.000
One, two, three.
00:41:05.360 --> 00:41:07.519
But well worth the climb.
00:41:09.039 --> 00:41:11.280
Yeah, well worth the climb.
00:41:16.960 --> 00:41:22.079
Oh, and girl, it's a long road, but well worth the ride.
00:41:23.679 --> 00:41:43.360
Yeah, do go Oh, if I won't lock key, then my life will be easy.
00:41:46.559 --> 00:41:50.800
One day you'll just hurry up and die.
00:41:52.719 --> 00:41:58.480
And that'll be the one day that you just don't ask why.
00:42:00.239 --> 00:42:04.559
There'll be this look on your face, wishing someone at a camera.
00:42:05.039 --> 00:42:29.039
Oh, but nobody will be this look on your face, wishing us standing there at the top of life, slowly, but well worth your climb Well worth the climb.
00:42:30.480 --> 00:42:32.559
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:42:37.760 --> 00:42:39.440
Oh well worth right.
00:42:50.400 --> 00:42:52.639
Hello, funny sounds, all right.
00:42:52.800 --> 00:42:56.320
Lonely Hill alternative version.
00:42:56.960 --> 00:42:59.679
Uh let's play one now called I Once Was an Ocean.
00:42:59.760 --> 00:43:06.000
We've got a good one coming up after this, um involving a co-writer, a female artist.
00:43:06.400 --> 00:43:10.719
But first, I once was an ocean.
00:48:12.800 --> 00:48:14.880
I once was an ocean.
00:48:15.360 --> 00:48:16.960
All those weird sounds.
00:48:17.199 --> 00:48:17.760
This is art.
00:48:17.920 --> 00:48:22.639
We have to show you these things to show you the kind of versatility of the artist.
00:48:22.880 --> 00:48:26.960
That's from his 2026 album, Fondness.
00:48:27.360 --> 00:48:30.880
Got a good one coming up featuring a female artist of him next.
00:48:31.519 --> 00:48:33.760
She'll be on two tracks today anyway.
00:48:33.840 --> 00:48:36.719
But the first the Grateful Roots specials.
00:48:36.960 --> 00:49:00.400
Gratefulroots music.com is the website specials there by Bob Dylan, who's in the Williams, Neil Young, Emily Horace, Jackson Brown, the Dubliners, Willie Nelson, Bob Dylan covers, Chris Christopherson, Shell Silverstein songs, Wylon Jennings, the Chieftains, Elvis Country special, Johnny Cash, Johnny Cash American Recordings, Van Morrison, Gordon Lightfoot, David Crosby, Graeme Nash, Stevens Tills, Christy Morton, John Prime, Lucinda Ronstadt.
00:49:00.559 --> 00:49:02.400
I keep saying Lucinda there, Linda Ronst.
00:49:02.480 --> 00:49:07.519
I'm gonna put a big red note on that one to kind of prompt me just before we get to it all the time because that's happening a lot.
00:49:07.760 --> 00:49:26.960
Anyway, the band Bruce Springsteen, Joni Mitchell, uh Hollywood Mac Three Part Special, Everly Brothers, Leonard Cone, Janicean, Lonnie Donegan, Little Feet, Steve Earl, Robert Plant, Grateful Dead, Mary Shape and the Carpenter, the Furies, Merrill Haggard, Aggs Connolly, there are a lot of the uh individual artists.
00:49:27.119 --> 00:49:54.800
We've also got uh Woodstock special, folk rock special, uh political songs, political uh musical families, uh folk songs, Irish and English folk songs, all female special, Americana singles, outlaw country, three part special, grateful groups, sounds of the over seventies at a male special and a female special, so two episodes of all artists over seventies, imagine that forty great singer songwriters at a three part special, one of a kind special, tribute album specials, and a few more.
00:49:54.960 --> 00:50:00.800
If you take a look at Grateful Root Music dot com, this is a big time Nashville star.
00:50:01.199 --> 00:50:02.159
Tell you about it afterwards.
00:52:06.480 --> 00:52:18.960
Just try to get always trying to take our row.
00:54:25.119 --> 00:54:28.079
Shaky Graves also features Esme Patterson.
00:54:28.400 --> 00:54:33.519
Now, Esme Patterson I've been playing the second track by her shortly in a couple of songs.
00:54:33.920 --> 00:54:37.840
She's an American gold-selling recording artist in the US and Canada.
00:54:38.079 --> 00:54:43.920
She's originally from Denver, uh, Colorado, and she currently is residing in Nashville, Tennessee.
00:54:44.400 --> 00:54:57.760
And uh she's about uh forty years of age or so, and she's been out there doing quite a lot of things, or looking at her resume here on Wikipedia, and it's quite lengthy, so I wouldn't be able to go into it all, but certainly I she was on the first album as far as know goes.
00:54:57.840 --> 00:55:02.639
The details are very hard to to get clarification on, but she seems to be on his first album.
00:55:03.039 --> 00:55:05.360
If not other albums, but certainly his first album.
00:55:05.840 --> 00:55:08.960
And um certainly as far as certain as I can be.
00:55:09.280 --> 00:55:11.840
But uh it's possible that she co-wrote that song as well.
00:55:11.920 --> 00:55:14.480
Again, it's not impossible to fully confirm it.
00:55:14.800 --> 00:55:21.599
It appears that she wrote three tracks, co-wrote three tracks on his first album and uh it appears that was on his first album.
00:55:22.000 --> 00:55:28.480
And uh but certainly the next one that she did co-write, which will be playing shortly, but just to give her her fair uh credit.
00:55:28.880 --> 00:55:34.639
And uh her name's just features on the track as well, so I'm sure that's part of the contractual agreements as well.
00:55:34.960 --> 00:55:41.920
She's up there with him, kind of at the same level and so forth, and uh I'm sure she's out there cracking away as we speak.
00:55:43.119 --> 00:55:45.840
Back to Roll the Old Bones, the first album.
00:55:48.400 --> 00:55:53.199
And this is uh I was gonna say Shaky Town, but it's Chinatown.
00:56:16.559 --> 00:56:22.480
This heart of mine keeps decent time.
00:56:25.679 --> 00:56:47.440
Though my ears may be weak, my eyes may be all black, I still have sense enough to feel that I'm not much without being.
00:56:50.000 --> 00:57:17.119
I've paid my due love one or two, but still it keeps a boiling bound to you so choose to be my victory for my eyes Oh, either way.
00:57:18.239 --> 00:57:25.519
I still want you here to night wow, you love that.
00:58:07.599 --> 00:58:14.800
Oh hell no, it's got a home of folks like me.
00:58:16.880 --> 00:58:23.119
There will come a day when the earth will cease to spin.
00:58:25.280 --> 00:58:31.840
Hold me close and say, My God, where have you been?
00:58:36.800 --> 00:59:07.519
I've been around old Chinatown Happy Lost County the stars above the hill Neath some old calming mighto.
00:59:10.159 --> 00:59:35.119
I'll see you Chinatown shaky graves now just uh a few of the things about the guy, it it's very sparse what's out there, so I don't have a huge amount of material to work off, and just those points that are made about Esme Patterson being on the first album, it appears that may refer actually to the second album.
00:59:35.199 --> 00:59:35.840
It's a bit unclear.
00:59:36.000 --> 00:59:43.039
See, there are a few compilations, anthologies have been issued, and sometimes I'm taking these tracks from the anthologies, and it's it's a bit unclear.
00:59:43.599 --> 00:59:49.119
But nevertheless, the most important thing is pretty music, as I'm sure you will all agree.
00:59:57.440 --> 01:00:05.519
And every year between a certain date in February, Shaky offers all of his music as pay as you want prices.
01:00:06.000 --> 01:00:12.719
And exclusive merchandise and content is also created and released with Shaky Graves Day.
01:00:13.119 --> 01:00:23.840
And a portion of the proceeds made from sales through Bandcamp and Shaky Graves Day concert are donated to the charity of Shaky Graves' choice.
01:00:25.920 --> 01:00:28.400
So watch out in Feb 2027.
01:00:28.960 --> 01:00:31.280
You might get some knockdown prices.
01:00:32.239 --> 01:00:36.239
All a bit shaky, you know, but nevertheless, it all helps.
01:00:36.639 --> 01:00:39.280
This is one from his 2026 album.
01:00:41.039 --> 01:00:42.960
Don't change a thing.
01:01:18.079 --> 01:01:26.320
So I tried and muscle through, try to put my back into your corporate pride.
01:01:33.920 --> 01:01:38.559
Uh can I clean my gun three week all night?
01:01:43.360 --> 01:01:47.519
Spending all my money tryna kill the time.
01:01:55.679 --> 01:01:59.840
Wasting all this breath, trying to make it right.
01:02:06.719 --> 01:02:33.039
Don't change things on Don't change things.
01:03:14.079 --> 01:03:15.920
Don't change the thing.
01:04:27.360 --> 01:04:28.960
Don't change a thing.
01:04:47.920 --> 01:04:51.519
Album called uh Fondness, isn't that what it's called?
01:04:51.679 --> 01:04:53.119
Yes, it's called Fondness.
01:04:53.280 --> 01:04:56.159
I'll just take a quick check there because I don't allude you astray.
01:04:56.239 --> 01:05:00.320
Yeah, fondness well, strictly speaking, it's fondness, etc., I think is the name.
01:05:00.719 --> 01:05:13.119
Um three songs to go now, and um I think this is the kind of podcast I should probably need to play it uh more than once really to get the feeling for Shaggy and just to absorb it all because it is it's interesting.
01:05:14.000 --> 01:05:18.559
It's it's a different type of uh thing than maybe we've done heretofore.
01:05:18.639 --> 01:05:22.800
It's um it sound is uh very singular, is all I would say.
01:05:22.880 --> 01:05:28.559
And I I just learned a lot about his music and of course I'm preparing for their show and so forth.
01:05:28.639 --> 01:05:34.159
And some of the songs are beginning to sink in now a little bit because I kind of heard him a few times or or parted him a few times and so forth.
01:05:34.400 --> 01:05:36.719
And I think you'll you'll get the benefit of it as well.
01:05:36.880 --> 01:05:42.800
I'm not just trying to get our numbers up front, I'm just I'm just saying to you what my objective feeling is on the matter.
01:05:43.039 --> 01:05:52.159
He's very much the kind of guy I would say who's gonna do his own thing and um you know, we see where where where where that leads him as such.
01:05:52.400 --> 01:05:59.440
And uh since since twenty fifteen, since he was got the emerging uh artist order uh and Americana.
01:06:01.679 --> 01:06:04.079
So um slowly doing what he's doing.
01:06:04.239 --> 01:06:10.320
He also does a bit of acting, by the way, and in uh Friday Night Light and the Sky Kids franchise.
01:06:10.719 --> 01:06:14.880
Not something that I've um known too much about, to be honest.
01:06:15.199 --> 01:06:18.239
We're getting back to that artist I mentioned, Esme Patterson.
01:06:18.559 --> 01:06:23.039
And this is one that she did co-write with and definitely did, and it's dearly departed.
01:06:24.719 --> 01:06:26.320
Shaky Graves.
01:07:12.079 --> 01:07:16.480
Well back then, baby, it didn't seem so strange.
01:07:19.519 --> 01:07:20.719
I used to moan.
01:08:07.760 --> 01:08:10.000
I was looking for my crystal bottle.
01:08:10.079 --> 01:08:16.079
I was busy trying to come out like we had to go.
01:08:40.640 --> 01:08:45.039
Well back to the lady, it didn't seem so strange.
01:08:52.079 --> 01:08:55.039
It still takes you to make the house.
01:09:02.079 --> 01:09:04.399
I hear you call my name, but no one's there.
01:09:04.960 --> 01:09:06.000
Except for me.
01:09:11.520 --> 01:09:15.600
You and I mum with no, the house is a human.
01:09:16.880 --> 01:09:24.560
Yeah, you and I'm on the mo, the house is a you soaming.
01:09:59.920 --> 01:10:04.159
It reminded me for whatever reason, just in a vague type of way, I won't push it.
01:10:04.399 --> 01:10:07.359
You're the one that I want uh from Greece.
01:10:09.680 --> 01:10:16.000
Well, this is the pen ultimate track on this Grateful Roots Shaky Graves podcast.
01:10:17.119 --> 01:10:19.039
And this is tomorrow.
01:10:29.039 --> 01:10:32.000
Well, I'm tired of illusion.
01:10:32.560 --> 01:10:36.640
I used to win every night of the week.
01:10:47.439 --> 01:10:51.680
You used to tell me we turned into something.
01:10:52.399 --> 01:10:55.920
Oh, you said life was much better than this.
01:10:57.600 --> 01:11:11.199
Yeah, but the closest I come to perfection is when you turn around to steal a kiss, but you never trusted tomorrow.
01:11:12.399 --> 01:11:16.800
Yeah, baby's had any way to live your life.
01:11:18.000 --> 01:11:25.199
Well, you love this heart and this extreme girl, but they've been out of tune.
01:11:26.560 --> 01:11:55.600
Yeah, for some time Well, you say, Oh, I love so many women, only so many women love, and driving me wild.
01:11:56.800 --> 01:12:05.279
Here they say, Oh, you get lost in complexion and the structure of a well-placed smile.
01:12:06.239 --> 01:12:12.880
But luckily, Oh, you never smile.
01:12:16.319 --> 01:12:23.760
Here are you Oh, you never smile.
01:12:25.279 --> 01:12:28.960
Oh, and it looks just a little bit better that way to me.
01:12:31.199 --> 01:12:32.960
Sometimes it does.
01:12:42.399 --> 01:12:44.159
Trust in tomorrow.
01:12:45.199 --> 01:12:48.720
Oh, maybe that's just a problem of mine.
01:12:50.399 --> 01:12:54.880
Yeah, I've been thrown around by some bad ones, girl.
01:12:55.199 --> 01:12:58.960
Oh, and a good one was a new thing this time.
01:12:59.920 --> 01:13:08.560
Yeah, but you showed me that I couldn't be farther over from the truth of the problem at hand.
01:13:10.000 --> 01:13:13.760
Oh, I could never say baby tomorrow.
01:13:14.960 --> 01:13:17.359
Oh, I'll be right there.
01:13:19.359 --> 01:13:31.520
I'll be your man of all your manual.
01:13:58.239 --> 01:14:01.359
Tomorrow Shaky Graves.
01:14:13.760 --> 01:14:15.359
Well, that's it folks.
01:14:15.600 --> 01:14:18.720
I've done my best under shaky circumstances.
01:14:19.039 --> 01:14:22.399
This is the last one, it's the big one, roll the bones.
01:14:23.760 --> 01:14:28.079
Probably fair to say that at this stage, Shaky is a cult artist.
01:14:28.640 --> 01:14:30.319
Let's see how he develops in time.
01:14:30.560 --> 01:14:33.600
Maybe he's wearing a bit of the Tom Waits hat at this stage.
01:14:35.119 --> 01:14:39.039
Just for me to say thanks for listening, Shaky Graves.
01:14:50.960 --> 01:18:40.399
