The reaction to this new Slow Skies track has already been great on the blogs with Disco Naivete, Pigeons and Planes, The Music Ninja and The Line Of Best Fit posting it this week so it’s got over 7,000 plays already.
‘On The Shore’ is the beginning of the followup to Karen Sheridan and Conal Herron’s first EP as Slow Skies, Silouettes. The track, from the Close EP, is pretty effective in its moodiness, it’s been compared to Daughter and you can detect similar brooding atmospherics. Sheridan’s distinct timbre keeps things more earthed however.
(Close EP is out on May 4th)

Are they playing any gigs soon?
They are playing one of my stages at Camden Crawl Dublin in May in Sweeneys.
Unreal thanks, I’ll see you there! Also just booked tickets for Nina Hynes’ album launch, doubt you’ll be missing that!
I am at a wedding so I will miss it! 🙁
Awh that’s too bad!
