Slow Motion Heroes​

Slow Motion Heroes are a brand new seven-piece band who are about to release their debut E.P. in the Pav next month. And they promise to make a big noise in their hometown of Cork in the coming weeks. For those music aficionados already in the know, Slow Motion Heroes have been busily tapping away in the studio putting the finishing touches to their debut EP. Now they are finally ready to come out and play, with their first gig coming up in the Pav next month.​

All seven band-members have impressive pedigrees having already found musical success in various guises. It all kicked off one night last year when Barry McAuliffe, erstwhile vocalist with Rulers of the Planet was sitting around with Noel Lynch, baton commander with El Bastardo and Revolution of a Sun, when they realised to their surprise that they both liked the same kind of music – not the typical hardcore sound for which their bands are so well-known – but more mellow tunes from the likes of Sigur Ros and Codeine. This discovery became the impetus for their new collaboration which would allow them to move away from the hardcore sounds so entrenched in their other projects and experiment with a lighter style. The result is Slow Motion Heroes – a band with a sound that transcends mere indie pop, with soaring melodies and haunting harmonies interspersed with ethereal instrumentals.​

Barry got in touch with Jean-Michel Cavallo of the hugely successful, now sadly defunct Cyclefly to take his place behind the drum kit. Noel got mates Dan Breen and Joe Jolley from Hope is Noise on board providing guitar and piano respectively. They both do lead vocals on some tracks as well as backing vocals in perfect harmony on others. And to add to the French contingent, Antoine Madiot was recruited on keyboards, Hammond organ and backing vocals. Diarmuid Galvin provides additional guitar to complement the elaborate musical arrangements that give Slow Motion Heroes their distinctive sound.​

So the rollercoaster ride began. The band started rehearsals in October 2008 and were ready to record their first demo in March. They travelled to Jean-Mi’s hometown of Antibes on the French Côte d’Azur in April to work with his old friend, producer Sebastien Gastaldi and renowned producer Christian Gence offered his services after hearing the boys play.​

The official launch of the first E.P. Slow Motion Heroes will take place in the Pav on 17th September and there’s a follow-up gig planned for the Glucksman Gallery in U.C.C. on the 24th. Expect to see a lot more of these guys in the coming months if they keep turning out tunes like ‘Paper over Cracks’ with its soaring harmonies punctuated with crashing guitars; or the cool clean pop of ‘At the End of a Big Wave.’ Then there’s the quietly melancholic ‘No Sense to a Summer’ that builds to an affirmative crescendo with the definitive cry “that’s GONE!” Looks like Slow Motion Heroes are here to stay.​

Katie Kim

" A remarkable beginning "
donal dineen


"…subtle, slow-burning magic."
Jim Carroll - '08


"Her scenery depicts longing, while the music suggests strength. But regardless of the musical accompaniment, Katie Kims' lyrics are, progressive, productive and working towards a firm conclusion, even if it's a hopeless one.."
Music Week '07


"Katie Kim's particular quandary is neatly mapped out for us in ten proverbial, illustrious scrapes of paper, seeing to it that the only journey of any relevance, is the one from the artists head to ours... enlightening."
Analogue '08


"Katie Kim - Twelve - the debut solo album from this irish based singer katie sullivan. she was also a former vocalist with indie rock outfit dae kim along with former ten speed racer member terry cullen. this is a beautifully intimate collection of songs centred around sullivans beautifully husky voice. the album has a similar kind of intimacy to the likes of mazzy star with hints of the early aggression of pj harvey or the more folky based late night feel of cat power. the album features some lovely background instrumentation with subtle touches of slide guitar, brushed drums and mellow electronic effects. its that kind of eclectic collection that reminds of the glory days of labels like 4ad and their collaborative this mortal coil projects. it really is a wonderful collection of laid back late night sounds featuring a voice to die for "
Road Records "album of the month" - 2008



"One of my favourite Irish albums of the season comes from Waterford lass Katie Kim. "Twelve" is a slow-burner, all weird turns and fuzzy twists. Live, Katie and her two hooded co-players get tougher and grittier in a Mazzy Star rocking out with Cat Power kind of way. Best songs were the ones which book-ended the set, the glorious "Radio" and the rivetting "Jennifer""
The Irish Times '09


"Born in London but based in Ireland, former Dae Kim front-woman Katie-Kim Sullivan describes her sound as 'acousmatic screamo pop'. In fact, she's a trafficker in dreamy space-rock: her songs sound forever in the brink of sinking into Cocteau Twins pastiche, but there's always a sublime melody or quirky hook to keep the whiff of recycled ideas at bay. Independently released, her album Twelve has already basked in ecstatic reviews. If there's any justice in pop, 2009 will see her break free of the local circuit."
The Independent '08


"Almost as if by accident, Katie Kims' aching voice has become one of the most widely anticipated, in the indie, folk, pop scene in Ireland. For all the richness of the orchestration, the songs, at any given moment, seem to be spare and offbeat. The intermitted side sound crests, merely making more space for Sullivan's lonely yearning"
Claus '07

" Katie Kim, you got to hear her. Straight out of Waterford, burning up the blues and making tunes for snakecharmers to ply their wares. The album is called “Twelve”. A glorious, glorious slew of bang on-the-money slightly not-there pop"
On The Record '09
