Shelleyan Orphan

September 7, 1989

Shelleyan Orphan brought their delirious chamber-pop to SNAP in September 1989. Nominally a duo of Caroline Crawley and Jem Tayle, the group expanded to a sextet for their opening slot on The Cure’s “Prayer Tour.”

On this rare US radio date, they perform a lovely set of selections from their “Century Flower” album.
