J. Graves

J. Graves is passionate dance-punk. Tense relationship rock, sanguine lyricism, guitar music, chord changes that sound like secret longing, a rhythm section that thuds, skitters, and melts over the determined voice of Jessa Graves. The heat of the cataclysm gives off a vapor known to galvanize meatspace into writhing, dancing heaps, creating rabid, loyal fans. Joined by their soul twin, the unassuming Aaron MacDonald, who would be a watchmaker --for his distinct timing and style, were he not a drummer, J. Graves is back with a dangerously wild and reimagined cover series, Undercover Summer, a welcomed and inspiring departure from their crushing LP Fortress of Fun, a first of its kind, choose your own adventure record. If Depeche Mode, Devo, and Blondie don’t foreshadow more heartbreaking and breathtaking new original music to be released in 2024 and beyond, no one knows what will. But where there’s a will, there’s a J. Graves, and likely a disco ball to show you the way.
