Go Slow is not just the title of the new record from the Saturdays, it's also the bands philosophy. After all, what would you call a work that so neatly spreads itself across such a wide variety emotions so slowly? Lyrically Go Slow covers everything from love lost to love found, good times and bad, and a little social commentary for good measure. The Saturdays will invite you in for a listen and then thank you. Musically Go Slow was based on Bo Butlers folk songs, that were stripped down even further in the studio, and then rebuilt into the sonically dense art that makes up The Saturdays debut LP for Superphonic Records.
For the record The Saturdays and producer Brad Armstrong took the "anyone who stopped by the studio got to play" approach, and the record became a true Birmingham effort. "Go Slow" features contributions of sounds from John P. Strohm (Blake Babies), Duquette Johnston (former Verbena and current labelmate), Jody Nelson (Through the Sparks), Nikolaus Mimikakis (The Dexateens & Through the Sparks), Keelen Parish (Wes McDonald Band), Sammy Boggan (13ghosts), Brad Armstrong (13ghosts, Maria Taylor), Claire Cormany (Kiss Me at The Gate), Buzz Russell (13ghosts) Alex Mitchell, and honorary Saturday Pete Nice on the pedal steel.
