“one of the great triumphs—Canadian or otherwise—of the year.” - The Georgia Straight

"Canadian troubadour Andy Shauf is a find." - The Guardian

“The Party charms and troubles, playing like the soundtrack to a particularly devastating film noir. …simply marvellous.” - 9/10 Exclaim!

“it’s a baroque-pop exercise with echoes of Seventies smarties like Harry Nilsson, Randy Newman and Steely Dan, though rather more empathetic than them.” - The Independent, UK
“The Party is definitely worth celebrating.” - Uncut, UK

Andy Shauf has delivered a delightfully surreal new video for his song “Early To The Party”. The track is from Shauf’s critically heralded album The Party, which Stereogum called “a lovely, luxuriant thing” and the Independent described as “a baroque-pop exercise with echoes of Seventies smarties like Harry Nilsson, Randy Newman and Steely Dan.”

The new clip, directed by Luke McCutcheon & Michael Yablonski (Andrew Bird, Young Galaxy), depicts an offbeat and surreal party attended by an collection of eccentric Twin Peaks-like characters. They socialize with one another, dance alone, and eventually engage in a strange party game which ends on a both poignant and unnerving note.

Andy Shauf is currently on tour in support of his critically acclaimed new album The Party, out now via Arts & Crafts.

in recent memory.” - Flood Magazine
