17 songs from our sold-out show at Albert Hall, Manchester *Upcoming live dates:* www.theslowreadersclub.co.uk/tour-new Thank you for your amazing support, you made this an incredible night for us

[@sylviamultiple5761]

I'm absolutely in awe of this band, I adore you guys. I was really surprised at the end of the concert when Aaron says 'I'd better take a picture if that's alright', how humble is that? I found it moving. Please never stop making music and never change that beautiful attitude towards the public. We love you!

[@RAINE____]

My friend Jonny Walker introduced me to your music years ago. He's not with us anymore but I'm glad to see you are

[@shapemark]

Fucking amazing! 👍 Please come to Hungary! Cheers from Budapest! 😁🎵

[@alanbennett9]

[@dave_listener]

The hair on my neck is stood up.... Wow... Love the Mexican wave... renamed in my head, to the Manchester wave. I even typed this reply to the beat... Thank you!

[@Hoernchenizer]

I have loved the chameleons, echo & the bunnymen, the sound, editors, white lies, hard-fi, interpol and the national for many, many years. Why the hell am I only getting to know this great band now? Incomprehensible. Greetings and love from Germany. Hope to see and hear you here one day!

[@theslowreadersclub]

Welcome! We play Germany in April 2025 maybe see you then? www.theslowreadersclub.co.uk/tour-new

[@theoryfish3491]

A man with impeccable taste. Like you, this band flew under my radar for many years. How does that happen?

[@petewoodman4736]

Try IST IST if you've not already. Another great band from Manchester. Slightly darker sound, but absolutely brilliant live

[@Hoernchenizer]

Great show guys 👍

[@brettka]

i live in seoul, korea but am willing to fly to tokyo if you have a show there. Indeed i went to tokyo last november to attend Interpol show.

[@theoryfish3491]

Haha. Aaron apologises for introducing a new song...'that's why we're here I suppose'. Then launches into 'How Could You Know', a track that blows 90% of other bands into oblivion. Yeah. Right. Genius mixed with down to earth Manc self deprecation. Utter respect boys.

[@petewoodman4736]

Made me smile too .... I always like a mix of old and new

[@nunoinacio6057]

Tremendous! Hope you lot make it over to NYC in the near future.

[@bigglestintin6875]

To be honest, I had barely heard any of your music when I met you in the pub round the corner from the Apollo, the day you performed at music feeds 2024. Watching you perform that evening, albeit a small set, I was transfixed! Your vocals and instrument playing was fantastic. That performance has led me to this set and, again I'm very impressed. Great music, lyrics and very nice people. Can't wait to see you live again. Great Kerning too 😁 Nipper

[@theslowreadersclub]

Nice one, glad you’re enjoying getting involved

[@chrismorgan3137]
