Steeped in Spaghetti Westerns and Kurosawa flicks, Slow To Wake
conjure images of grainy 60s film through the use of instrumental
rock, other-worldly jazz & ambient soundscapes. They shamelessly
juxtapose lush strings & digital electronics to provide a modern
soundtrack to pristine beauty & urban decay, as well as pristine
decay and urban beauty. The band was formed in 2005 with the basic
concept being to combine elements that usually seem to be at odds
with each other: organic and digital, acoustic and electronic, soothing
and harsh, light and dark. The result is a cinematic style of music
that comprises many eclectic styles and song forms.
Current members are: EJ Fry, Shane Rettig,
Topu Lyo, Skye Steele,
and Geoff Kraly
Other Collaborators: Christopher Hoffman, Rob Woodcock,
and Don Chase
