Silver Shadow

Since bursting onto the scene in 2013, Cardiff's Slowly Rolling Camera has crafted a distinctive niche in the European jazz tapestry, effortlessly weaving together soul-stirring rhythms, magnetic melodies, and a rich palette of emotional hues. Known for alchemical compounds of jazz finesse, cinematic gravitas, and electronic flair, Slowly Rolling Camera fashions sound, perpetually pushing the boundaries of musical creativity. "This album reflects our fascination with the cinematic approach, not just in sound, but in how we construct our music". SRC's latest album, 'Silver Shadow,' delves even deeper into that cinematic realm. Inspired by the visual and musical interplay in film montages, 'Silver Shadow' centers around a fictional protagonist, encapsulated both in the album's narrative arc and its striking artwork. The tracks, concise and emotionally consistent, mark a departure from earlier long-form composition, aiming instead for more immediate impact. The core trio of Dave Stapleton (keys), Deri Roberts (sound design & production), and Elliot Bennett (drums) drive the band's collective ethos, further ornamented by a vibrant ensemble of collaborators including Jasper H?iby on bass, Josh Arcoleo on sax, Stuart McCallum on guitar, and Verneri Pohjola on trumpet. The band's genre-defying approach and profound emotional depth has earned comparison with iconic groups The Cinematic Orchestra and GoGo Penguin and captured the hearts of many thousands of fans worldwide. Slowly Rolling Camera has garnered recognition in the media for "the way jazz and trip-hop merge into their music", (Deutschland Radio), its "orchestral sweeps, Bristol-style trip-hop, and ethereal drum and bass rhythms" (Crack Magazine) and as "A wildly talented group of young musicians." (Jamie Cullum). Celebrating a decade of innovation in 2024, Slowly Rolling Camera continues to evolve. The eponymous inaugural album in 2014 championed a raw, organic sound with double bass, drums, and Fender Rhodes at its core, a theme that developed and expanded through subsequent works, 2018's 'Juniper' and 2021's 'Where The Streets Lead', and now returns with renewed focus, extra edge and compressed energy for 2024's 'Silver Shadow'. "The Cinematic Orchestra's influence since the early 2000s has been profound, inspiring our signature blend of acoustic and electronic elements, crafted to be upfront, edgy, and raw." Marking their sixth studio release, 'Silver Shadow' not only confirms Slowly Rolling Camera's innovative spirit but also celebrates its impressive streaming success, with over 20 million streams to date. This album is a reaffirmation of the group's enduring sound and evolving legacy in the contemporary music landscape.
