Alejandro Rose-Garcia, better known as Shakey Graves, shed his skin for his latest album once again to reveal a heavier rock vibe.

His Texan roots survive throughout his latest album Can91裸聊视频檛 Wake Up, the tambourine and snare drum spurs sputtering and whistling to mimic the wind. But the theatrical elements in the latest addition to his discography cannot be ignored, lulling listeners to step into his version of the world.
