Andy Arthur Smith – Shortcut [Vinyl EP]

Digital Release Date: July 25, 2025

Ship Date: Fall 2025 or earlier

Format: Limited Edition Vinyl

Shortcut is the debut album from Andy Arthur Smith — a 7-track project that blends soul, funk, jazz, metal, psychedelia and theatrical pop. Known for his absurdist humor and wide vocal range, Andy transitions from viral content creator to full-fledged recording artist with this genre-blurring body of work.

Shortcut explores themes of digital burnout, modern relationships, emotional volatility, and personal reflection — delivered with Andy’s signature blend of honesty and eccentricity.

The album’s lead single, “Play Me Faster,” is a hyperpop-influenced anthem about infatuation and anxiety. Other standout tracks include “Native Tongue,” “Can’t Put a Leash on a Cat,” and “That Was Fun.” “Get a Little Dopamine” features a guest performance by Stevic MacKay of Twelve Foot Ninja.
