Below a bobbing, black-lit cowboy hat, a shadowy figure picked up a guitar and plucked a pulsing fingerpicking rhythm, murmuring the opening lines of a crowd favorite, “Only Son”:\u00a0 “I used to be an only son \/ My heart was but a stranger.”\u00a0 The figure\u2019s voice moved slowly through an emotional build and grew to a raspy, tortured holler, snapping the crowd out of its captivated silence and drawing powerful howls from the pit.\u00a0 An eerie quiet followed, matching the near-total darkness on stage, and the cowboy-hatted shadow delivered the song\u2019s final lyric with a delicate whisper.<\/p>\n

And like that, Austin-based singer-songwriter Shakey Graves kicked off the first of two sold-out nights at the 9:30 Club.\u00a0 The opening song, and the theatrics of it being performed in the dark, immediately revealed a crucial reason for Shakey\u2019s continued ramp of success since his first full-length album release in 2011.\u00a0 Shakey doesn\u2019t perform from a pedestal; he stands in the dark with us, makes casual conversation with us, and at times feels like as much a fan as a performer, shooting a giddy smile up at the disco ball when it suddenly lights up the venue\u2019s rafters.<\/p>\n

The vibe of familiarity and intimacy lays all the necessary groundwork for Shakey\u2019s brand of stripped down, busking-style sound to hit the hardest.\u00a0 Alternating foot-stomps thump a red suitcase for a kick drum and a tambourine on the floor; an active right-hand propels the guitar\u2019s constantly chugging engine; and a raw and weathered vocal tone stirs up an emotive fervor.\u00a0 It\u2019s a sound that harkens back to the early acoustic blues masters that predated rock and roll\u2014Lead Belly, Skip James, Mississippi John Hurt\u2014but also introduces a fresh take.\u00a0 Playing in 2018 allows Shakey a liberty these artists never could have known, breaking out of the typical open chords and blues shapes that characterized that early American music and incorporating elements of the grunge and indie rock movements that came decades later.\u00a0 The full-band rendition of \u201cPerfect Parts\u201d that came as the fourth song in the set, for instance, is nearly impossible to imagine existing in a world before Pearl Jam and Modest Mouse.\u00a0<\/p>\n

New Material Brings Genre-Spanning Experimentation<\/h4>\n

This tour finds Shakey at an intriguing fork in the road.\u00a0 Several years after his switch from purely solo artist to full band, the just-released new album Can\u2019t Wake Up<\/em><\/a> reveals Shakey trying on a handful of new stylistic directions that were all on display\u00a0on Tuesday night.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The set\u2019s last four songs before the closer, for example, featured the full band rejoining Shakey on stage after a string of solo songs and playing a diverse handful of the new material.\u00a0 \u201cClimb on the Cross\u201d paired a front-and-center bassline with reverby guitars reminiscent of Mac Demarco\u2019s Salad Days<\/em>.\u00a0 \u201cMansion Door\u201d ventured into indie pop and then a heavily rocked out bridge section and guitar solo that could be straight off Weezer\u2019s blue album.\u00a0 \u201cCounting Sheep\u201d brought guitarist Patrick O’Connor to the forefront with Shakey for a repeated, harmonized dual-guitar riff.\u00a0 And \u201cCops and Robbers\u201d dabbled in early-sixties pop, highlighted by Christopher Boosahda\u2019s Ringo-style drumbeat (specifically, the one heard on such early Beatles tunes as \u201cPlease Please Me,\u201d \u201cFrom Me To You,\u201d and \u201cIt Won\u2019t Be Long\u201d).<\/p>\n

Peak Shakey<\/h4>\n

Still, through all the experimentation, it\u2019s clear that Shakey knows his strengths.\u00a0 The two-song encore was Shakey at his most effective: alone with his guitar, his voice, and his stomping feet.\u00a0 A few palm-muted chords were all it took to spark the crowd aggressively clapping to the beat of \u201cRoll the Bones\u201d and \u201cLate July,\u201d doing their best to keep up with Shakey\u2019s signature sudden tempo changes.\u00a0 Speeding up, slowing down, then suddenly stopping and coming back in at a breakneck pace, Shakey manipulated the energy in the room with ease and attitude, grounding it all in the infectious plucking pattern of his right hand.\u00a0 Sometimes perhaps you need to do something different to find out that you had it figured out right from the start.<\/p>\n
