When they’re not foraging for salty tears in the Forest of Emo, Melbourne four-piece Slowly Slowly are deftly positioning themselves to be one of 2018’s biggest breakout bands. Songwriter Ben Stewart floats in a slipstream of never-ending lyrics that balance hyperrealism with a clever stream-of-consciousness, convention-be-damned. 2017’s ‘Aliens’ is the first offering from a new album due out this year, and while there are hooks aplenty, there’s not really a chorus to speak of; and it’s that willingness to break the rules of songwriting that makes Slowly Slowly such an interesting band. They won the Beyond The Valley competition in December, and we’re excited to watch them pump out Unconventional Anthems at every turn as 2018 unfolds.
