Formed in 2006 in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Slow Down Molasses rank among Western Canada’s finest musical exports. Their third album, 100% Sunshine, will be released on September 2, 2016 on Noyes Records, and forges new sonic territory for the band while retaining their unique hybrid of ’90s Anglophilia and contemporary Canadian rock. 2015’s Burnt Black Cars was hailed as “drug-drenched psych-pop” by Q magazine and “immediately memorable and timeless” by The Line of Best Fit, with the band going on to share the stage with the New Pornographers, Swervedriver, Built to Spill, Preoccupations (fka Viet Cong) and the Besnard Lakes. Veterans of festivals across North America (SXSW, CMJ, NXNE, Sled Island) as well as European (Incubate, End of the Road, Liverpool Sound City, Great Escape, Reeperbahn, Nouvelle Prague), the band are renowned as a euphoric live experience, with Exclaim praising their “huge, stadium-ready sound and colourful presence”. Slow Down Molasses are singer/guitarist Tyson McShane, drummer Jordan Kurtz, bassist Chris Morin, guitarist/keyboardist Aaron Scholz, guitarist Levi Soulodre and keyboardist/singer Jeanette Stewart.

Is Diamond Mind an induced state? Is it a musical salve poured from the essences of needlessly diverse influences like Chet Baker, Mount Eerie and Joanna Newsom? Is it a movement? Is it a secret or is it a joke? Can you blog it? Can you change it or will it change you? If you force it will it come? What will the community think? Does Diamond Mind float? What amps does it use, and at what wattage? Which strings? What really happens after rehearsal? Does it run speed trials? Is it a strife - a struggle uphill? Is it anything other than a band from a Northern town? Does it matter?

Who’s curious?
