Manc Talent Of The Week¬02: The Slow Readers Club

The Slow Readers Club is a band that grows itself into you. A magnificently immersive flashback to the electro roots that made Manchester the music capital of the world back in the 80’s. No wonder why they sold out O2 Ritz recently.

NEW SINGLE ‘PLANT THE SEED’ OUT NOW on Scruff of the Neck Records includes b-side ‘Don’t Mind (Lake Komo Remix)’

Aaron Starkle – The Slow Readers Club

Commented as “One of the most exciting sounds coming out of our fair city” by Manchester Evening News – The Slow Readers Club are a Manchester based four piece who specialise in dark and brooding indie electro. Their music has drawn comparisons with Interpol, The Killers and The National. Consequently, their last three singles have enjoyed airplay on BBC 6 Music and XFM (featured twice as XFMs shock of the new) with the latest single Forever In Your Debt also featured in the top 5 singles of the week.

The Slow Readers Club have been getting rave reviews for their live shows, including a sold out show at Manchester Academy 3, Isle Of Wight Festival, Tramlines Festival, Party in the Pines and Blackthorn Festival (including support slots with ‘Catfish & The Bottlemen’, ‘The Struts’, ‘Reverend and the Makers’ and ‘The Sunshine Underground’ )
