I Draw Slow

Folk // Dublin, Dublin

I Draw Slow is a five-piece outfit comprising vocals, guitar, fiddle, banjo and double bass. Holden siblings Dave (guitar) and Louise (vocals) have been writing together for two decades, starting on Dublin’s gigging circuit with funk operation Tabularasa. Since then the pair have teamed up with:
Violinist Adrian Hart (Yurodni, Prison Love)
Claw hammer banjo player Colin Derham (Tabularasa, Choral Sex, Global Funk Orchestra)
Double bassist Konrad Liddy (Prison Love).

The Sound: Alt-country, folk, roots, old-time, Americana The five have created a new sound, rooted in the old time style of the Appalachian Mountains, drawing on Irish traditional music and modern Americana. However, this is a whole new songbook of stories and melodies. These are dark tales of debauchery and trouble swinging from the kind of well-crafted melodies that survive.

In the past year I Draw Slow have released their second album "Redhills" which went to number 7 in the Irish download charts within two days of its release. Since then they have toured in Belgium, Germany and Denmark.
