Roll Away by Shelby Helburn

Roll Away is a celebration at the end of the world. But instead of giving in to the gravitational pull of nostalgia, Roll Away focuses on rekindling hope in the face of uncertainty. With lyrically dynamic songs like “A Place The Belongs To The Wind” and epic ballads like “Still,” Helburn uses this album to redefine his vantage point. The vivid, wide-ranging, and immersive sounds of Roll Away will remind listeners of watching films in Cinemascope and once again, the listener will be ushered into a world entirely of Helburn's creation. And as the album closes with “Away”--likely to be Helburn's magnum opus--listeners will feel as if they're in the last car at the drive-in, watching the credits roll, and wondering where this music has been all their lives.

As if pulled from archives of the approaching past or distant future, Roll Away feels both familiar and incomparable. But if there's one thing you can say about Shelby Helburn, it's that if you think you've got him figured out, you don't.

In partnership with Up The Creek Records, Roll Away will be available on limited edition creamsicle vinyl, black vinyl, and on all streaming platforms.

With a flair for the iconic, Shelby Helburn has taken the melodies of 90s Britpop and combined them with the timelessness of Americana to create a distinctive sound all his own.

This rich sound—shaped by experiences of growing up in Northern California—aims to explore both the struggles and the uniqueness of modern life.
