BIOGRAPHY

We are a Manchester based Indie / Electro band who's output ranges from insanely catchy upbeat indie to angry, introspective downbeat ballads. Our music has drawn comparisons with Interpol, The Killers and Arcade Fire. Our critically acclaimed Debut album relased in May 2012 has had airplay on BBC 6 Music, BBC Introducing, NME, Q Radio and NME TV, Sky Sports and ITV.

Our youtube channel has seen 155,707 views to date helped in no small part by the video for 'Block out the Sun' featuring on Coldplay's website.

The band includes three former members of Omerta who
released three critically acclaimed and collectable singles and
whose XFM live session earned them a top five place in the
sessions of the year.

The Slow Readers Club have been building a loyal local following
from appearances at The Deaf Institute, Night and Day and
Friends of Mine festival amongst others. They have also had
great support from DJ’s at Manchester's biggest Indie night clubs
5th Avenue and 42 Street.

"Awash with Doves-ish sweeping melancholy with splashes of The Chameleons and Ian Brown's solo work, the album's 12 tracks evoke the palpable sense of a band being suffocated by their surroundings, the bittersweet soundtrack of young men waiting for life to start broadcasting in technicolour"
