Fellow Mortals - “Stella’s Birth-day”

See notes below regarding pre-orders and shipping costs.

Fellow Mortals unfurls as the latest, literary-led project from Trashcan Sinatras’ Francis Reader and Simon Dine of Noonday Underground.

Their ongoing, five-decade artistic and personal friendship detours to produce Stella’s Birth-day, a 14-track 10” lavishly illustrated, full colour 38-page al-book (album and book) release. It gives melody and images to author of Gulliver’s Travels, Jonathan Swift’s, most emotive verse, featuring full lyrics and personal notes from Francis, offering insight into the meaning and context of each piece:

/1/ Dancing Days 

/2/ Venus in Her Prime

/3/ Poetic Dress

/4/ With These Eyes

/5/ Oh, Stella

/6/ This Day

/7/ Serious Lines

/8/ Some Lasting Pleasure

/9/ Reflecting

/10/ Stubborn Stoics

/11/ Who With Reason

/12/ A Better State

/13/ So Unkind

/14/ I’m Alive

Stella’s Birth-day is released in a very limited, hand-numbered, hard-cover pressing of 300, available for pre-order exclusively at trashcansinatras.com.

The album was released digitally on March 13 (Stella's birthday) and in physical form in late May.

Pre-orders will receive a personalized, handwritten note from Frank.
