Evening Post review of Slow at St George's Bristol April 19th 2008:



Featuring a band called Slow and a headliner whose second solo album was called Quiet, this was never going to be a gig that exactly rocked.



It did, however, live up to its potential as one of the most mesmerising gigs of the year.



Slow certainly created a chilled-out mood. Their songs were as slow and as mellow as you’d expect but it never became one-dimensional, thanks to the sheer beauty of Marvin Denning and Lucy Hutton’s harmonies and the gentle quality of the five-piece band’s stripped down music.



They certainly cast a very powerful magic and it was so easy to become completely spellbound by their bittersweet songs.



Review from Sonic Sanctuary Sunday, March 16, 2008



An optimistic Mark Kozelek could be a good comparison for the main voice of the first act Slow, and the carefully measured music that glinted behind them had a sure softness of touch that bordered on perfection.



Loose bass plucking, wavering e-bow slivers, unhurried percussion and ghostly female vox/harmonium interlocking around those lightly reverbed vocals, which seemed to be leaking from somewhere else.



Their music was pristine and dare I say it faultless – a gentleness best appreciated through closed eyes



Slow perform Face The Music at Unlit Night in Bristol



Our version of Face The Music at a recent unofficial Bristol Unlit show organised by the one and only fun-lovin' Jont, filmed by the fantastic Dave Depares and attended by a handful of poets, musicians, friends and one loveable anarchist bookseller, amongst others. A great night, as ever. Kate is playing, just beneath a pile of books :)



Review from Bristol Acoustic Music Festival 2010



When it came to quiet beauty, however, no one comes close to the always excellent Slow whose set was, as you would expect from the name, very slow and far more quiet than you would think possible for a band of five people with three electric guitars and a drummer.



Although missing a key member, Nik Young having been brought in to replace Lucy Martyn, they still managed to cast their very special magic, and during songs like Glory, Tired and even the very catchy Seeds, the obviously enthralled audience was so quiet you could almost hear yourself breath.

Slow like to take time over our songs, brewing them up like a nice cup of herbal tea
