Wil Wagner, frontman of the critically adored The Smith Street Band, is set to release his solo record Laika next Monday.

To be released through Poison City, theMusic.com.au is thrilled to have the exclusive pre-release stream of the record. Hear it now!

Something of a pet project for Wagner, the title track Laika has been bouncing around for a few years and Wagner's finally recorded and found a release for the track.

The track – and the rest of the mini-album – pours out stories and questions of hometown, growing up (or growing down?) and friends lost and loved.
