Known for their captivating live performances and infectious energy, Slow Club has gained a dedicated fanbase over the years. From intimate acoustic sets to electrifying shows at renowned venues, they continue to leave a lasting impression on all who experience their music.

slow club is what happens when two kids from sheffield get together in their gap year to scoff chocolate covered peanuts, drink tea, tell stories, and most importantly, put said stories to music. though they're far from being your typical indie twee-a-likes, descendents of the arctic monkeys they're most certainly not. slow club mine a wholly different musical seam. charles and rebecca are slow club. aurally, they're a one man band kind of affair. except with two people. as their debut single for moshi moshi singles 'because we're dead' suggests, rockabilly, folk and country all find some kind of place in their very long list of influences. though the twosome have their stripped down and delicate moments (as on the single's stupidly pretty, finger-picked b side 'sunday'), they possess a quite frankly mega rhythm section. to see slow club live is to fully appreciate quite how mega that rhythm section is: whilst charles plays guitar and joins her on vocals, rebecca plays drums. with her feet and occasionally a couple of hands. whilst stood up. she also plays water-filled and perfectly pitched glass bottles, spoons, a tambourine, the back of a wooden chair, and anything else she can hit with a stick. it's a sight to behold. despite their youthful years, these guys aren't your usual angst-ridden teen musicians - they didn't have difficult childhoods and they're not out.
