All Went Black- Single

All Went Black

Lived out your life like you wanted to
Avoided things that you had to do
We know your face from yesterday
They see no reason why you’re here today
We’ve see the picture where you’re standing tall
Pay their money in the hope you’ll fall

Get to the stage where you’ve got to, got to, got to, got to, got to say

Still Got Appeal!

The dizzy heights of the star machine
They’ve run the credits, yes it’s time to leave
This is my life, it will always be
Your closing words in the final scene
Angle up as you’re looking down
They’ve written Fade Out, but you’re still around

Get to the stage where you’ve got to, got to, got to, got to, got to say

Still Got Appeal!

Try to find your way back…

I’m from a place where
The devil says goodnight
Wide skies watched over
As we waited through life

I didn’t know what you were
But I waited for you
Look to the horizon 
Willing you in to view

You go your own way
And I'll go mine
You got your answer
I'm doing fine

When I turn out the lights
I think of all the prayers
Rising from the rooftops 
Converge in the air

Yellow haze of streetlights
Obscures the sky here
Train ourselves not to think
Pretend we don’t care

You go your own way
And I'll go mine
You got your answer
I'm doing fine

I'm Doing Fine

Manchester’s The Slow Readers Club are probably the biggest band you’ve never heard of. But that’s all about to change.

The Slow Readers Club are Aaron Starkie (vocals), Kurtis Starkie (guitar and vocals), James Ryan (bass) and David Whitworth (drums). They are a Manchester based four piece who specialise in dark and brooding indie electro that has drawn comparisons with Interpol, The Killers and The National and which feels equally at home in big arenas and festival fields as it does in intimate surroundings.

Formed in 2010, they’ve taken the long road to recognition. Their self-titled debut album featured live favourites like One More Minute, Feet On Fire, Sirens and Block Out The Sun, but despite rave reviews, they remained firmly under the radar. Many bands would have called it a day, but their self-belief, coupled with a growing band of influential bloggers and radio presenters, kept them going. 

The phrase “underground phenomenon” doesn’t do justice to what this four-piece have achieved to date. Self-funded and self-managed with no more than word of mouth and an album called Cavalcade at their disposal, they sold out The Ritz in Manchester two months in advance last year and have just repeated the trick with The Albert Hall. Not only that they went to London and sold out Oslo and The Borderline with their army of fans and their ubiquitous “READERS” chant as well as playing to growing crowds around the rest of the country.

You can catch them on tour at the following dates: 

21st October - The Button Factory, Dublin 

4th November - Academy 2, Birmingham 

10th November - The Garage, London

17th November - Thekla, Bristol 

23rd November - Rescue Rooms, Nottingham 

24th November - The Albert Hall, Manchester [SOLD OUT]

9th December - King Tuts, Glasgow [SOLD OUT]
