Slow Pulp is an emerging indie rock band valued for their resonant melodies and introspective lyrics that touch on themes of personal strife and inner growth. Hailing from Madison, Wisconsin, the group was initially formed by Emily Massey (vocals/guitar), Alexander Leeds (bass), Theodore Mathews (drums), and Henry Stoehr (guitar), with the latter serving as the principal songwriter. Their sound is a compelling blend of shoegaze, lo-fi and dream pop elements, characterized by hazy vocals set against the backdrop of melancholic guitar riffs and a rhythm section that swings from gentle cadences to more assertive, driving tempos.

Slow Pulp's debut full-length album, "Moveys," released amidst the tumultuous landscape of 2020, was a testament to resilience as it was crafted in the face of challenges including chronic illness and the global uncertainty due to the pandemic. Defined by tracks such as "At Home" and "Falling Apart," the album showcases their ability to channel vulnerability into their music, resonating with listeners through shared experiences of hardship and healing. With performances that exude a distinct intimate energy, such as those in their "Slow Pulp | Audiotree Far Out" session, the band has steadily captured the attention of both audiences and critics, promising a bright and enduring trajectory in the indie music scene.
