Shakey Graves w/ Denis O'Donnell
Details
Get ready for an unforgettable night of Austin's finest tunes with Shakey Graves and Denis O'Donnell at the iconic Continental Club! Shakey Graves, aka Alejandro Rose-Garcia, brings his signature blend of blues, folk, country, and rock 'n' roll. Born in Austin, he kicked off as a solo act after a trippy encounter at Old Settler's Music Festival in 2007—hence the 'Shakey Graves' moniker from a stranger's 'spooky wagons' ramble. From black-and-white album art to full-color vibes with his band, his sound has evolved from stripped-down folk (hello, Americana Music Awards 'Best Emerging Artist') to indie rock nods to The Beatles, The Kinks, Elliott Smith, and more.
- Shakey's journey: Solo folk-rock roots to full-band energy with 90s indie influences!
- Denis O'Donnell opens: Austin country scene staple since 2006, blending Texas honky-tonk with NYC jazz flair on his latest 'The Snow in Brooklyn' album, recorded with top players at Bob Hoffnar and Andy Taub's studios.
- Denis's creds: Opened White Horse and Sagebrush, punk rock origins, Irish pub roots in Queens—a true Texas-NY legend in the making!
- Perfect spot: Continental Club on South Congress, heart of Austin's live music magic.
Don't miss this homegrown showdown—pure Austin magic that'll have you two-stepping and singing along all night!
