Originally from Madison, WI — Slow Pulp is made up of childhood friends Alex Leeds (bass), Teddy Mathews (drums), and Henry Stoehr (guitar) who joined up with fellow Madison resident Emily Massey (guitar/vocals) for their project titled EP2. The band released their critically acclaimed sophomore EP The Big Day in May of 2019. Their 2018 singles “At Home” and “Steel Birds” have both racked up over one million streams on Spotify alone.

Slow Pulp is out on tour most of March 2020 with select shows alongside labelmates Kevin Krauter and Divino Niño and additional shows alongside Chicago band Beach Bunny. You can check out their website for full tour dates.
