Slow Pulp is a Chicago-based indie rock band known for their evocative soundscapes and emotionally rich lyrics. The group consists of Emily Massey (vocals, guitar), Alex Leeds (bass), Henry Stoehr (guitar), and Teddy Matthews (drums). Together, they have carved out a unique space in the modern music landscape, blending elements of dream pop, shoegaze, and alternative rock. The formation of Slow Pulp has a compelling backstory. The members met during their school years in Madison, Wisconsin. As friends, they initially began making music together purely out of shared passion. In 2017, they decided to take their dedication to the next level, relocating to Chicago and formally establishing Slow Pulp. Their self-released EP, "EP2," caught the attention of critics and fans alike, leading to a growing following and eventual tours. Their debut album, "Moveys," released in October 2020, marked a significant milestone in their career. Faced with personal health challenges, family crises, and the global pandemic, the band managed to channel these experiences into their music, creating a deeply intimate yet universally relatable album. "Moveys" is often noted for its introspective lyrics and intricate instrumentation, which demonstrated the band's ability to transform adversity into art. In their relatively short yet impactful career, Slow Pulp has shared the stage with acts like Alex G, Soccer Mommy, and Whitney, solidifying their reputation as an act to watch. Their music continues to evolve, characterized by a fusion of genres and a willingness to experiment. This willingness to push boundaries ensures that each new project feels fresh yet consistent with their signature sound. Slow Pulp's journey from school friends to a critically acclaimed band speaks to their resilience and creativity. Their dedication to their craft and their ability to connect with audiences on a profound level make them not just musicians, but storytellers whose narratives resonate far beyond the stage.
