ABOUT THE SLOWJET
Prior to 'moving to Wynntown' in 2007, Marshals' guitarist/pedal-steeler/vocalist Iain Sloan was part of 'slowjet' - an Edinburgh-based 3-piece - alongside bassist/vocalist Scott Tobin (now of Dropkick) and Andy Weir (formerly of Chickweed) on drums and vocals.
Although not a million miles away from the sound of the current-day Wynntown Marshals (by virtue of Iain's guitar-playing and vocals no doubt), slowjet were perhaps more influenced by the likes of Teenage Fanclub, Matthew Sweet, Bob Mould/Sugar, Death Cab For Cutie, with a little slice of Foo Fighters thrown in now and again.
Recently uncovered in the 'archives' (aka 'Iain's attic'), slowjet's self-titled debut 6-track EP is a strictly limited edition release, and features fan favourites "SummerHum", the Fanclub-esque "Hear Me Out", "Colours" (reminiscent of Dinosaur Jr and Buffalo Tom in ther heyday) and "Time Waits", which recalls Husker Du in their prime.
Although written collaboratively by Iain, Andy and Scott, all 6 tracks on this release feature Marshals' guitarist Iain Sloan on lead vocals as well as on guitar duties.
