British pop band <a href="spotify:artist:4Zcl1FeBmIw22Ytdr27l1Q">Straw</a> was formed by Bristol university mates Mattie Bennett (vocals/guitar) and Roger Power (bass); expanding to a trio with the addition of keyboardist Duck, the group -- originally dubbed Please -- quickly signed to Arista, only to be dropped by the label even before issuing their first single. Adding former Kings of Infinite Space drummer Andy Nixon and rechristening themselves <a href="spotify:artist:4Zcl1FeBmIw22Ytdr27l1Q">Straw</a>, the group landed at WEA and issued its debut single "Weird Superman" in the summer of 1998; three more singles -- "The Aeroplane Song," "Moving to California" and "Soundtrack of the Summer" -- followed in 1999 before <a href="spotify:artist:4Zcl1FeBmIw22Ytdr27l1Q">Straw</a> released its first full-length effort, Shoplifting; upon completion of the album, <a href="spotify:artist:1HD11ESo3mcg0LtEJSZkvN">Power</a> was dismissed from the lineup. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi
