Shirwell is the official application for Shirwell Bancan, an Australian singer-songwriter with more than 45 years of original music. This site is the official place to stream his catalogue, read news, browse physical releases like the Black Horse vinyl, and connect with Shirwell Entertainment.
Press play on the music player, read track notes on Discography, learn more on About, or browse featured tracks on the home page.
Based in New South Wales, Australia, Shirwell Bancan began writing songs in the late 1970s — club dates, demo tapes, and the slow work of finding a voice that could carry both quiet ballads and full-band rock. Over four decades that voice became unmistakable: storytelling lyrics, gold-curtain showmanship on stage, and a catalogue that grew one original song at a time.
Independent ownership mattered from the start. Shirwell Entertainment publishes the masters you hear here, sells limited vinyl when press runs are available, and partners with local businesses such as Nati Roses for flowers and event work on tour. Shirwell is the web home for that ecosystem — stream, read the newsletter, browse products, and manage an account from one place.
Whether you discovered Shirwell through a live show, a rose stand near Double Bay, or a search for original Australian music, welcome. This site is maintained by the artist and team — not a generic streaming aggregator — and every article, FAQ answer, and discography note is written for listeners who want context behind the songs.
Black Horse is both a song and a visual symbol: Shirwell on a rearing horse, guitar raised, gold curtains behind him. The limited-edition vinyl and CD package uses that image as a statement — 45 years of originals collected for listeners who want a physical artefact, not only a stream.
The fifteen-track sequence moves from recent radio-friendly cuts to deep-catalogue rock. Collectors use the CD's page to view per-track artwork; streamers use the player and Discography for context. Neither format replaces the other — they serve different ways of enjoying the same songwriting.
If you are new to Shirwell Bancan, start with Kissing and Never Be The Same for contemporary production, then step back to Come on Babe (Version 2 — louder) and Baby Gonna Rock for the live-band energy that built the stage reputation. The Discography page explains each track in plain language.

Shirwell has his own personal models, dancers, singers, and more—people who travel with the shows, step in for concerts, and help with everything else that keeps the music moving.
Princessis highly talented: she holds a bachelor's degree, works as an accountant and business consultant, and is a standout dancer. She will head the dancing team for concerts, and while Shirwell is traveling she will cover business consulting and accounting—plus whatever else the road throws at the company. One amazing person Shirwell found; outstanding talent like this is not simple to find.
