Love the dark guitars and what a splendid production. Enjoyed!

Back to your Byrdsian persona, liked this one. Your voices mesh so well.

Pretty nice chill ambience. Keep up the good work

Hey guys. Loving this song. I love the piano melody in the background and how it overlaps with the guitar. Really cracking atmospheric sound.

Excellent work as usual...beautiful song very well performed and arranged! 🙏🏻✌🏻

Now, would you be thinking about Boris J.? Great track!

A song about people with far too much power who command little respect

LYRICS:

To rule over everything
is a poisoned chalice for sure
To fool them all and make 'em think
you're in any kind of control at all

You're schooled in all the clever ways
of avoiding an answer in public
So spin your silver webs and never say
what you really think
unless you know that you can trust it

Who am I 
to challenge the word of a king?
You're too damn high
You're ruining everything

Word of a King

The Welton Shipwreck is a UK-based rock duo made up of Stu Head and John Culkin. Formed at the start of the 2020 pandemic lockdown period, their songs are written and recorded by means of long-distance collaboration from their homes in Scotland and Yorkshire. The music they make combines elements of shoegaze, post rock, folk and psychedelic.

Stu and John are old friends of over 20 years. Both originally from the Greater Manchester area, they met at university in Leeds in 2000. The band name refers to a street they lived on as students.

Both Stu and John sing, play guitar, bass, keyboards and drums across their various tracks (along with a few less conventional instruments.) They mix and produce all of their own music.

New tracks always in the works and posted right here!

Thanks for visiting.
