THE SLOW READERS CLUB – Announce EDINBURGH gig in 2021 + New Album: ’91 Days In Isolation’

Manchester’s The Slow Readers Club have announced their fifth studio album, 91 Days in Isolation, out on October 23^rd self-released via their own label, SRC Records. The album is available to pre-order exclusively on the band’s webstore, on very limited colour vinyl and CD, here: https://tsrc.ffm.to/91days.op

91 Days in Isolation swiftly follows their Top 10 album, The Joy Of The Return, released in March this year. Written during the UK lockdown, the album was created with the band all working remotely from home.

Speaking of the writing process for the album, lead singer Aaron Starkie said:

“This collection of songs was written remotely during the UK Covid 19 lockdown. With each band member sharing ideas over the internet, the songs were pieced together at home. When the lockdown lifted we took the songs to Edwin Street Recording Studios in Bury and recorded this album with our producer Phil Bulleyment. We are proud to present 91 Days in Isolation”. 

Throughout the entirety of the lockdown, The Slow Readers Club consistently found creative ways of staying connected to their fans. These included exclusive lockdown videos including videos of fan-selected cover songs, ‘watch together’ sessions of previous shows, fan listening parties of their previous albums and an unforgettable acoustic session surrounded by 21,000 vacant seats in a hauntingly desolate Manchester Arena for the venue’s 25^th anniversary celebrations.

The new record also sees the band become the first to announce a new album during a ticketed live-streamed concert. Performing live from The Met in Bury last week, the four-piece played a blistering set containing exclusive performances of some of the new songs from the upcoming album.
