Slow Galley’s Drift
Avant-rock tunesmiths from Sheffield, UK, Slow Galley’s Drift offer immersive layers of fuzzy guitar and ambient washes of sound over songs of love and forgetting.
2024’s Broken Field System EP features an improvisation for film; a reworking of the traditional folk song The Broom Squire's Bird Song; an acoustic folktronica track; and a chanson-inspired piano piece.
Debut album Hex Up Yrself and the When Darkness Comes EP are also available direct from the Three Galleys Records webstore, from the Slow Galley’s Drift Bandcamp page, and all major streaming and download platforms including Spotify and iTunes.
