Slackrr

Slackrr are easily one of the most talked-about bands in the UK underground circuit right now. Hailing from Southampton, the band has only been active for just 4 years and in that time, they have taken some giant leaps forward in becoming a well-known and widely-loved name across the UK punk and rock scene. Slackrr’s debut single ‘Closest to Perfect’ was first aired on BBC Introducing in 2018, and since then the band have toured endlessly around the UK, playing over 500 shows and festivals in this short space of time with positive feedback coming out their ears.

Slackrr released their first ever EP ‘I Know’ back at the start of 2019, which was limited to just 200 copies only and hand-signed to make them extra special. The EPs sold out on their online store in just 48 hours with a handful left exclusively for sale at their shows.

In 2019, the band were asked to play at the legendary Isle of Wight Festival as headliners on their stage on the Friday night. Due to the hugely positive reception to their live performance the band were invited back to the main arena of Isle Of Wight Festival 2021, and again in 2022. Their self-released official studio debut album ‘Time, It Waits For No One,’ was also released on the same day. The album received an incredible reaction from fans and reviewers alike, and in July of 2019, their single ‘Nerve’ reached No.1 in the Radio Indie Alliance charts, and remained in the UK Top 10 and Global Top 50 for over two weeks.
