Premiere: SlowPlaceLikeHome – Tiger Lilly

Screen Shot 2016-05-17 at 13.42.51

Written, recorded, and produced in the forests of South Donegal, where all his previous releases have originated from, the new Double A-side single by Keith Mannion AKA SlowPlaceLikeHome reveals the workings of an artist constantly evolving his craft. Set for 10″ release on May 23, ‘Tiger Lilly/Friday’ sees Mannion move more toward the live setting with production. Where 8 minute B-side ‘Friday’ tells the tale of a self-styled magician and Coulrophobic called Friday, the former – which we premiere here – is a burrowing electro-pop gem that tells the story of reflective delinquency from the eyes of a night owl. Nice.

SlowPlaceLikeHome play the following shows over the coming months.

​May 20/21: Renafix Fest, Sligo
May 28: Shed Show, Donegal
July 8: The Workman’s Club, Dublin
Aug 19/21:  Another Love Story 2016, Killyon Manor, Meath
