Austin-based, indie Americana artist William Harries Graham is thrilled to release his brand new album, “Jakes,”today. Recorded and mixed by platinum, Grammy-award winner Stuart Sullivan at Wire Recording in Austin, Texas, the record features William Harries Graham on lead vocals and guitar, Mike Meadows on the drums and keys, Andrew Duplantis on bass and background vocals, Bobby Daniel on bass and Abra Moore on vocals. “Jakes” is Graham's second full-length record following his 2015 debut, “Foreign Fields,” and the title pays homage to the neon sign above the pool table in the back room of the historic Continental Club, where Graham plays a Wednesday night residency that he has been doing for four years. William Harries Graham will be doing a Waterloo Records in-store performance on Sunday, March 3 at 5 p.m. to perform some tracks from his new record. See here for more information. He will also be performing at SXSW 2019 as an Official SXSW artist. See below for Graham's SXSW Official and unofficial showcases.

Add to this Austin's beloved ALEJANDRO ESCOVEDO and DAVÍD GARZA and the AMAs have created a most memorable night of music once again. And as in years past, don't be surprised if the AMAs produce a VERY SPECIAL GUEST or two.

Those who are familiar with Mother Falcon's sweepingly beautiful live shows, need no further explanation of how a concert of the Austin ensemble changes one's perception of great live music.
