"Strays (Life Inside The Orphanarium)" is a 17 track collection of very rare and unreleased songs from The Church's Steve Kilbey. "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 ends with an extraordinary live performance of Steve covering the Triffids' classic ‘Lonely Stretch’ - such was the power of this performance you just couldn't put a track after it!".

Limited to 500 copies.
