SHORTSTRAW. UNVEILS NEW SINGLE ‘BAD TURN’
Coventry’s genre-bending force shortstraw. — the alias of Erin West — unleashes her latest track ‘bad turn’. Known for straddling grime, rave, and punk, West delivers politically charged, pop-culture-laced lyrics with the charisma of Keith Flint and the razor-sharp flow of an underground MC.
Following May’s ‘dot cotton’, praised by DIY, Dork, So Young, The Line Of Best Fit and Rolling Stone UK, ‘bad turn’ arrives after a summer of standout festival slots including The Great Escape, Brighten The Corners, Boomtown, and an upcoming End Of The Road debut.
“This song is about that moment when things have gone too far, and you know it’s about to go west — whether on a night out or in the world at large. The moody Memphis-to-jungle beat captures that feeling creeping up on you.”
