Details:
Slowking was formed in October 2006 when four childhood friends (Luke Michielsen, Anthony Ferreira, Matthew Comper, Marco Avolio) inadvertently reunited during an open mic night in a small bar in Guelph, Ontario. Confining themselves to a basement that retained the ambience and sweaty excitement of a few too many parties, the four friends began crafting a sound that is often described as Broken Social Scene meets Interpol.

A year after Slowking formed, they began recording their debut album, ''Rival Cities'' at The Pocket Studios in Toronto. Produced by Michael Langford and mastered by Joao Carvalho (Sloan, Matthew Good, Stars), ''Rival Cities'' plays like a complex musical narrative tracing the range and sophistication of the band''s influences and personality.

Adding keyboardist Joel Fulford of the ambient rock quintet, Tin, and building momentum from the release of their debut album, Slowking has developed a considerable fan base throughout Southern Ontario. They have established a reputation for delivering energetic, dance-friendly live performances, and have taken the stage at some of the province''s most exciting venues, including Toronto''s Silver Dollar Room, The Mod Club Theatre and Guelph''s Club Vinyl.

Slowking''s live following has created a buzz that college radio stations across the country have picked up on. ''Rival Cities'' has charted #1 in stations nation-wide, from CFOU (Trois-Rivieres), to CKMS (Waterloo), to CFBX (Kamloops). Slowking has also cracked the top ten on many other stations, including CJAM (Windsor) and CHOU (Ottawa). In December, Slowking charted #31 on the nation wide college radio listings.

Slowking''s danceable hooks, blistering guitars and anthemic choruses will capture your interest, while their musical depth will make you want to keep their debut album ''Rival Cities'' on repeat.
