Shakey Graves

~ May 9, 2022~ 8pm~ . ~ ~ May 9, 2022~ 8pm~ ~ The prehistory of Shakey Graves exists in two overstuffed folders. Inside them, artifacts document an immense era of anonymous DIY creativity, from 2007 through 2010 – the three years before Roll The Bones came out and changed his life.There are stencils, lyrics, drawings, prototypes for concert posters, and even a zine. The latter, which Graves – aka Alejandro Rose-Garcia – wrote and illustrated, tells the tale of a once-courageous, now retired mouse who must journey to the moon to save his sweetheart. At the time, he envisioned the photocopied storybook as a potential vessel for releasing his music.~ ~ ~ ~ Back~ ~ ~ ~ . Event Details. Location: 364 Smith St, Winnipeg
