'And The War Came' is the Australian debut for Austin-based singer/songwriter Shakey Graves (a.k.a Alejandro Rose-Garcia), released via Dualtone/Cooking Vinyl. The new album features first single "Dearly Departed."

Produced by Chris Boosahda and Alejandro Rose-Garcia, 'And The War Came' follows the artist's 2011 self-released debut album, 'Roll the Bones,' which brought him national acclaim and, three years later, still ranks near the top of Bandcamp’s digital best-seller charts. While his first album was a solo affair, 'And The War Came' is a collaborative work. Boosahda brought all of his gear to the artist's house and converted the space into a big, open studio. While the signature Shakey Graves set-up provided the starting point, other musicians were invited in, including Esmé Patterson.
