The Northern Soul Podcast: The Slow Readers Club
On December’s Northern Soul Podcast, Lucy McNamara chats to The Slow Readers Club, a Manchester-based four piece who specialise in dark and brooding indie electro. Their music has drawn comparisons with Interpol, The Killers and The National. Northern Soul met them at Ramsbottom Festival earlier this year – you can watch the video here.
Meanwhile, Lucy’s playlist features Of Monsters And Men, Moving Panoramas, Patawawa, Jefferson Airplane, The Cure, James and Vennart.
You can get in touch with Lucy via Twitter @Lucy_McNamara or via Northern Soul @Northern_Soul_
