Austin’s most famous one-man-band, Shakey Graves, takes his show on the road with the official release of And the War Came, only the second album of his short but vertically-oriented musical career. The album, out today on Six Shooter Records in Canada, bursts out of the gates bolstered by national radio play, a strong review in Exclaim and a sold out string of Western Canadian dates, not to mention an upgrade from The Horseshoe Tavern to The Phoenix in Toronto

We are so pleased to finally announce details of They Promised You Mercy, the fourth Six Shooter Records album from Amelia Curran, songwriter extraordinaire and pride of Newfoundland. They Promised You Mercy will be out on November 4, 2014. We decided to celebrate the songwriting on They Promised You Mercy by first sharing the complete album lyrics (music will come soon!)
