A clear natural ability for writing songs that hit you from that first second, Friends Don't Die now returns with his latest offering ‘Slowdown’. A track which immediately draws you in with its droning guitars and synths, it is certainly reminiscent of Day Wave but with more angst and grunge. With the many genres swirling around ‘Slowdown’, it is unfair to pigeon hole it into one, which is what makes it so intriguing upon each listen. A personal meaning stems behind, referring to George’ wife advising him to slow down and trying to enjoy the simpler things we all take for granted in life.

A hook ridden chorus with a melodic flow that will have you singing on repeat, Friends Don’t Die have created an epic space for themselves to reside in. ‘Slowdown’ is a melancholy, yet upbeat and happy track, perfectly set for massive crowds across venues and festivals across the US.
