Robbers On High Street

Robbers On High Street will release their EP Anything Could Happen, on April 17th. The effort will only be available digitally and on limited edition hand-pressed vinyl. The four-track project was initially only available via PledgeMusic for those that pre-ordered their last LP. It features their song “The Letter” a Black Sabbath, Beatles influenced track that didn’t make the final cut for Hey There Golden Hair.

“It was originally supposed to lead into ‘Happy Horses Always’ and we recorded it in tandem as one long seven and a half minute stretch of tape,” explains singer/guitarist Ben Trokan. “But when it came time to sequence the album it didn’t fit with the other tunes so we chopped them in two. You can actually hear where the tape runs out at the very end of the fade on ‘The Letter’.”

“I made a CD of demos I did for Golden Hair and ‘The Letter’ was the lead off track. Mikey (drums) told me when he first played it in his car he thought he put on the wrong CD. He assumed I must have been super stoned. It’s pretty different for us, I swear I don’t smoke pot,” clarifies Trokan.

The Brooklyn-based band is coming off a successful 2011, which included the release of their third LP, Hey There Golden Hair via Rocco Grecco Records and performances at SXSW, DeLuna Festival and CMJ in addition to tours across the West and East coasts.
