Steve Kilbey - Strays (Life Inside the Orphanarium) *Pre-Order

Release Date Friday 2nd October 2026
All pre-orders will be dispatched/made ready for collection on that day.

Whilst compiling and sorting through the Steve Kilbey solo catalogue I came across a great many songs that had no particular home. They were good songs, strong and passionate but with scant information about them and mostly hidden away in a darkened room or wandering empty streets in hope of being played. I pulled out some of these tracks and saved them in a ‘to do’ file. Later on, I found that I had also acquired some wonderful radio sessions thanks to fans and collectors for pointing me in the right direction. These also hadn’t been heard by most fans either. Over a year I messed about with these tracks and felt close to them so much so that I thought I must create an album to home them. The album kicks off with a ‘belter’, intended for a film soundtrack, a very strong song quite brilliant and the album ends with an extraordinary live performance of Steve with the Hoffmen sean, ricky & adrian covering the Triffids classic ‘Lonely Stretch’ such was the power of this performance you just couldn’t put a track after it !
