| Robyn Hitchcock's new album Shufflemania! is out October 21 via Tiny Ghost. Check "The Shuffle Man" clip below. |
Recorded in locations around the world over the pandemic era, SHUFFLEMANIA! offers up 10 gloriously ingenious new Robyn Hitchcock songs in just under 40 minutes - a “proper pop album” as nature intended. Songs like “Midnight Tram To Nowhere” and the optimistic, album-closing “One Day (It’s Being Scheduled)” are state-of-the-art Hitchcock, manifesting his signature wit, miraculous gift for melodic craftsmanship, and striking humanity in a world gone mad.
Check out the video for opening track "The Shuffle Man" after the track listing below. You can pre-order Shufflemania! via Bandcamp right here.

A note from Robyn
Hello dear listener,
I am thrilled to be unleashing my new record album SHUFFLEMANIA! on the world.
What is SHUFFLEMANIA!? It’s surfing fate, trusting your intuition, and bullfighting with destiny. It’s embracing the random and dancing with it, even when it needs to clean its teeth. It’s probably the most consistent album I’ve made. It’s a party record, with a few solemn moments, as parties are wont to supply. Groove on, groovers!
Love on ye,
RH x
