Alejandro Rose-Garcia and his wife, Stephanie Hunt, each tour with their respective bands under the names of Shakey Graves and Buffalo Hunt, respectively. Thursday night they rocked with a sold-out show at the Haw River Ballroom in Saxapahaw.



The pair married last year, and earlier this year the couple had their first child. They are touring together, with combined bands, along with their daughter, on the road.



The night started off with “Cold Weather,” “Look Alive,” and “Green Grass,” before breaking into a fantastic rendition of Neil Young’s “Unknown Legend.”



I know these two are married, but wow, just wow, they have such a wonderful rapport with each other on stage. Their voices complement each other and mix so well, as do their individual personalities. Even though they’ve been together for many years, the exchanged glances and flirtations make it evident that these newlyweds are in love.



Also evident is their shared love of the music that they make individually and together on stage. The night was spent with alternating between the whole band on stage, and each performer singing a couple of solo songs by themselves, and then joined by the band.



Several highlights during the night were Hunt’s “Little Things” and “Apple Tree,” along with Rose-Garcia’s “Roll The Bones” and “Hard Wired.”



The two hours of non-stop music ended with a cover of the Bee Gees' “Islands in the Stream,” followed by an encore of “Late July” and “Dearly Departed.”



This was such a fun night of music, in a wonderful packed-out venue of 750 fans moving, dancing, and singing together.
