History
Slow Pulp began after childhood friends Teddy Mathews, Alex Leeds, and Henry Stoehr decided to start a band. This resulted in their first release, an extended play (EP) titled EP1 in 2015.[1] In 2017, they released a second EP titled EP2, which was the first release to feature new member Emily Massey.[1] In 2019, the group released another EP titled Big Day.[1]
The group was midway through recording its debut studio album, Moveys, when the COVID-19 pandemic hit; it was recorded remotely and released on October 9, 2020.[2] [3] [4] The album received positive reviews.[5] [6] [7] In support of the album, the band embarked on their first headlining tour,[8] and also supported Death Cab for Cutie, Pixies,[9] and Alvvays.[10]
In September 2023, the band signed to Anti-, with whom they released their second studio album, Yard.[11]
