SPIN Sessions: Shakey Graves - “Roll the Bones/Built to Roam” (Live At Voodoo Experience 2016)

- Alejandro-Rose Garcia - better known as the multi-talented, genre bending artist Shakey Graves - makes busking into an art. He expertly weaves looped guitar riffs together live onstage all while keeping rhythm on suitcase that pulls double-duty as both amp and drum kit, an undertaking that only serves to bolster Rose’s growing reputation as a technically gifted artist. But his talents aren’t limited to his pedal loadout; Rose also injects a dusty Texas soul into each of his songs and displays an elastic range that jumps between a folksinger’s gentle warble and a country star’s pleading holler. That array is plain to see on “Roll the Bones” and “Built to Roam," two songs he brought to the Toyota Music Den stage at this year’s Voodoo Fest.

Best way to describe Shakey, is that he is an artist that does covers of himself, and isnt weighed down by having bandmates, so he can change any aspect of the song he wants depending on how he feels at the time.
I've seen him play this song six or seven different ways and every single one of them still blows me away! Such an amazing artist!
Yep, they are ALL my favorite Verizon.
Version.
The music flows through him. He doesn't play music, he is music. Best definition I can give.
i always say he doesn't play the guitar, he plays WITH the guitar.
That's it exactly.....Amazing bloke!
rickdriesxd loo
You can not be more to the point
You actually stole my line
I'm really happy to have seen him go from a hidden gem on Bandcamp to a full-blown Texan star. So fucking talented, cool, and deserving of his praise.. Also digging the grimier electric sound he's putting out now.
Intro is straight fire, then he spits the pick out of his mouth and starts singing, damn.
WoW....The man doesn't create music...It created him to play it to us.
This guy is like water with his arrangments and add ons. Thats pretty impressive to do constantly n not end up forgetting where ypu are
Excellent job on dealing with unwanted squealing of the guitar. Love this version of the song. Never gets old.
Can’t say that I’ve ever loved a man that I’ve never had the pleasure of meeting. Alejandro, you, good sir, broke that particular cycle.
Extraordinary finger tapping skills at 3:38 lmao, god I love everything about Shakey. Makes everything cool haha
Jesus fuck how do you get so many tones from one instrument?
I’ve had many goals for my guitar playing ability’s but this man is hands down the top of the bar.
All that while crushing the singing, the drums, the performance and the songwriting. This guys is a beast
A little late you’re probably a lot better at guitar now but he’s in Open C# why it’s so awesome sounding
I never heard of him until today. I’m a fan now. Very cool stuff.
He is awesome
That tone is out of control
It's perfect!
That’s the point...
It’s both at the same time, it’s called being awesome - does he strike anyone as not knowing what he’s doing?
That's his style. U can't be that dumb not to notice
Shakey is always good, but this crowd is freaking awesome!
TheMoth219 I wish they'd put their fucking phones down.

Shakey is a savage! Hope he comes to the west coast someday soon...
Every live performance is different. Love this cat. 🤗
Saw him In Dallas a few months ago and hands down one of the most electric shows I've ever been to.
Haven't checked him out for a while but heartening to see he's as good as ever. Just has always had the voice, guitar chops and presence that marks him out. I'd put him on a par with The Tallest Man On Earth. Anyhow, great to hear these wonderful Shakey tunes again and see him with a good audience too.
Being hungover heavily in the snow sure makes some good music.
came by 2 listen sat on the grass & had myself a good time..............
I played him for my friends one day....the guitar players dig him....chiks may take a little longer....but they will too.....hes amazing dude
Best version of roll the bones on guitar that I've seen, that was brilliant work! Shakey never fails to amuse, honestly.
Makes my tinnitus go away
Absolute beast of a man and musician.
One of the absolute best live acts going.
I hope to see this dude play Live one day.
That is a crazy level of control over the dynamics and sound coming from the guitar.
Absolutely fantastic
This guy is music
I would give my eye teeth to see him in concert...just one time...
I wonder what they would have thought of this at the enchantment under the sea dance
Underrated Comment.

HOLY freaking WOOOOOOOOW!!!! Can’t believe that Today is the 1st time I heard of this Man. I know of him now.
Woooooooooaaaaahhh... Just discovered Shakey! Life is better now. ✌🏼 How on Earth does he do it?!?!?!

That was one of the best shows I've ever been to. Wish I could go back and see it again.
Snakey gives me hope for the real, soulful music for the future! Lit of country picking influence here🔥🔥
This dude is a legend! Love this guy! I love how fast he can Travis pick - if you know you know.
What'z up voodoo fest, I about to blow your mind, ear and soul, and so it goes, and so goes!!
But who really knows!;
No other video him has such a good tone!!!
Love it Shakey. Never change.
I’m sure I’m the only one who would like to see him and les claypool do something together
You most certainly are not alone bud
Claypool and Brain!
agreed!! exactly what I thought after seeing SG for the first time tonight...him and Les Claypool would be a perfect combo 🔥
I love that Shakey just plays his song however the fuck he feels like playing in the moment. Lmao.
Saw him at Willie Nelson's picnic on the 4th. IMO maybe best in show. I will go see again!
Well that was a f***ing knock out 😳🏆

ChumleyChumchizer
Same, dude..
And I see SO MANY comments stating "you know; I'm not into dudes, but I'd get with shakey graves in a heartbeat"
For me it's just the stage presence and his skill as a guitarist. Fuck, man haha
Lol
I'm straight as well.
I only did the gay porn for the money
I share the sediment. Frigging rad af.
@@garyburginjr1366 the original one of these is real intense
Totally got a man crush dude woaw man that performance just wow
Well if you watch other performances of him close ups on drum and tambourine its pretty amazing
All I can say is coming Everytime I need you... You are there
❤❤❤❤❤❤
J ai 60 ans j adore
yes please, may i have another
What a divergence from 13 years ago. Maturity has definitely hit him in the chords
Well I'm in fucking love again. Jesus Christ. The straight 🔥
Shake is the most exciting guitar player o know
What pedal is he using at the start? Awesome rhythmic sounds..
Daryl James he’s using a walrus audio fuzz/tremolo, and a looper of some sort.
Shakey Graves is a demigod who slays dragons with his guitar.
Dang Ole Shakey mang
Dangle boy play that there guitarmang...ooooowee
Dang said mang
He needs to come up with a new song called your halo is drooping when you fly to close to the ground. I bet he can't look at that chick without cracking up.
Bit of Jeff coming through when hangs on a long note. Like hearing an old friend.
I thought the same thing
cool
Seco ,una maquina, genial 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Suddenly I'm a cubs fan
Dude Shakey ive been listening as long as you been playing! You gotta slow back down cant enjoy it if you dont play it!
Is that open D that he's tuned in?
Is that his heartbeat or drumbeat?
The name may be Shakey, but the tunes be Tasty.
Does anyone know what tuning this is in? I'm pretty sure it's an open tuning but I can't figure it out.
Robert Drawdy open d I think
Open C#
C# G# C# F G# C#
It's absolutely open D
Open C#, he says in his rig rundown that his Gibson hollow body is always in C# :)
Open...
Obviously I should have been here for moral support. 🤓
Hes wiked period
VOODOO for ya’ll
Shakey pisses excellence.
does he for real wear a watch with calculator function?
Tristan Heck hehe geeks rock!
@matt Harvey its for tallying up the pile of booty that presents itself after every show.
Can definitely hear Muse's influence
Joe Lo Truglio has a band?
Kings of Leon old school
Reminded me of the same.
this was cool.... in the late 60,s
I couldn't even do the foot pedal thingy
His profile reminds me of Dave Matthews
Him and Lincoln Durham should do something together.
They should sell vip tickets to his show where you get to be healed by touching his body while he plays!
Why are "some kids" these days more interested in recording the event with their phones instead of enjoying and getting lost in the live experience. I can totally get with Jack White not allowing cell phones at his shows.
Yeah, an epidemic. Live music speaks to you in ways of the common human experience and you're holding up your phone. Holding their phones while their banging too probably.
I find myself asking the same question. I also ask myself this question: Why do I focus on what “some kids” are doing instead of just enjoying the music and being present in my own experience.
And when you are watching and commenting on a you tube video you get to focus on what someone else focused on while filming at THEIR live experience.
Who cares everybody has there own way of enjoying a gig or eating a dinner 😂😂
@@weakbrainthrombosis It's impossible not to see them at a standing room only event when your view is blocked by phone after phone. I paid to see a show live, not someone's phone in my face. Put that crap down. Jack White is right for several reasons.
