with the:   Yes I Do Shuffle, Wonders Stupid Clown EP


Artist's Biography

An evolving collaboration between legends in their own lunchtime, Aubrey Straw and Brian Karrot, Strawbrian Players Convention are Port Talbot's answer to Traveling Wilburys, with other contributing local artists frequently featuring in their projects.


About the Album

The tracks on the EP seamlessly cross genres of folk, rock, indie and psychedelia, with lyrics that twist and tease you into another era.

"YES", the hypnotic opener to SPC’s new EP, is a lucid dream of a track where surreal acrostic poetry meets internal dialogue. With spoken-word energy, cryptic imagery and a rhythm that pulls you under, blurring lines between reality and imagination. Strange, sincere and deeply listenable; for those drawn to music that speaks in riddles and resonates like truth. Perfect for playlists spotlighting alt voices, art-pop or leftfield storytelling - like your inner monologue got its own mic. Knowmsayn?

It also includes remastered versions of previously released blockbuster singles 'Dealers Shuffle', 'She Has Many Wonders', 'Stupid (Whizzed Up Version) and 'Inter-Class Clown'.
