Wake Up
Shiny Brain Crayons
"Wake Up" is the energising indie-pop and post-punk title track from the debut EP released by London-based alternative duo Shiny Brain Crayons in late 2024. Written by band members Marianne Canning and Stergin, the song blends driving guitar riffs with motivational themes of self-actualisation and breaking out of life's apathetic ruts.
So Alive
Shiny Brain Crayons
Summer soundtrack 2026 has arrived! So Alive sweeps the airwaves with a breath of fresh mountain air, and revamped sound palette for SBC. Shiny Brain Crayons re-introduce themselves reflecting with a mature and simpler approach to music making, and the industry. Keeping the laidback vocals and swapping guitars for a dancier leaning, So Alive dares you not to jump around. Paying homage to Doechii, Animal Collective, Fcukers, and The Source (Aka life energy, not the 90s British band) , SBC are “calling in the karma” for their next big move. So Alive is the third of several releases for Shiny Brain Crayons in 2026.

$50 licenceFreedom
Shiny Brain Crayons
Freedom is the 5th single from south London alternative-indie/post-punk duo Shiny Brain Crayons. Celebrating life as a game, pulsating dark grooves, thumping bass, and the familiar angular guitar and synth combo maps out Freedom as the soundtrack to your epic quest called LIFE. Shouting is encouraged ‘let your bloody heart sing’ and don’t take yourself too seriously with this bouncy indie-post-punk-pop hit. Shiny Brain Crayons continue their musical mark with groove-based riffs, stark drums and driving guitar licks, reminiscent of the 80’s finest courtesy of award winning producer/multi instrumentalist, Stergin. This signature sound steps up a gear with singer/bassist Marianne Canning’s vocal delivery: laid back, rhythmic, oozing confidence whilst a tongue-in-cheek clarinet cadenza heralds a triumphant victory.
$50 licencePerfect
Shiny Brain Crayons
‘Perfect’ takes you by the neck, screaming into the dance music world, and showers you with Shiny Brain glitter. The energy of Perfect Exceeder has now morphed into a sexual, provocative strip-tease, purring in your ear. Taking pleasure and playfulness to the max, SBC reminds you that we are all perfect in our own imperfect way. Your kinks? They’re perfect. Your body? It’s perfect. Your moves? They’re perfect. Thumping, rock-inspired dance music, it is fresh and scintillating, whispering sweet nothings, saying everything that you want to hear. Perfectly at home on the workout playlist or house party banger for the end of the night…anything goes. ‘Perfect’ is the second of several releases for Shiny Brain Crayons in 2026.
They Call Us The Bohemians
Shiny Brain Crayons
They Call Us The Bohemians is the punchy and critically acclaimed single by South London guitar-driven post-punk electronic duo Shiny Brain Crayons. Known for twitchy minimalism, smart art pop, and energetic, unpredictable performances, the duo has been praised by BBC6 Music and Radio X for their delightfully chaotic and infectious sound.
