Event information
SHORTSTRAW comes to Cape Town as part of a four-city launch tour marking the band's first new material in nearly five years.
The show follows the release of new single Rubber Arm, the opening track from an upcoming EP called Everything In Between, the first instalment of a planned three-part project produced with Jacques du Plessis at High Sea Studios. Frontman Alastair Thomas has described the return as an unplanned decision among friends who realised too much time had passed since their last release. The new material draws on changes in the band members' personal lives over the past five years, including marriages and children.
Support acts for the Cape Town date are still to be announced, with tickets going on sale through the band's website.
