I spent the morning in the world of The Slims.
Jake reminds me of Joaquin Phoenix as the Joker.
Context - the film clip for Crooks. Worth a watch.
I felt this sense of displacement that sometimes we see in Live Music, in the underground we escape in.
Hidden worlds filled with secret light and sound.
Maybe you know Apache by The Shadows - Iconic.
Maybe you know the Arctic Monkeys - also iconic.
Well that thunderous rhythmic sound you hear is The Slims bridging the intergenerational worlds in which this music has lived in, mostly overlooked like Jake dancing through Luna Park (please see paragraph above - Crooks vid)
Emerging from time and space in the year 2025, Neon Cowboy, the sophomore EP has been gifted to us. An album that has seen new fans skip the line for Elon’s rocket to Mars and spend their time enjoying what we have right here.
The only travel needed is to a venue near you.
