Slow Hollows
Slow Hollows is the smart, constantly evolving indie rock project of Los Angeles musician Austin Anderson who managed to produce several high-profile releases in the mid-2010s while still in high school. Between the biting, lo-fi garage punk of his early work to the more introspective new wave tone of 2016's Romantic, Anderson showed an aptitude for quickly absorbing and adapting various facets of pop music from release to release. Throughout its initial phase, Slow Hollows primarily operated as a band, but in 2024, Anderson relaunched it as his solo project with Bullhead, his most introspective and subtle album yet.
Initially working under the name Hollows, Anderson issued the punchy lo-fi cassette release I'm Just as Bad as You Are in January 2014, leading a trio that also included bassist Jamie Atkinson and drummer Nick Santana. Shifting into a more melancholic mode and belying his youth with a low-pitched laconic vocal style, Anderson and his crew returned in June 2015 with Atelophobia via the artist-run Danger Collective label. By 2016, Anderson had gained a reputation around town and, prior to Slow Hollows' next release, he managed a handful of high-profile collaborations, appearing on songs by Tyler, The Creator and Frank Ocean, and even doing some modeling work for Yves Saint Laurent. Released at the end of that year, when the singer was still only 18, Romantic saw Slow Hollows again shifting their approach, with the addition of horns and mellower new wave and dream pop tones shaping their sound. It also featured an entirely new group of musicians joining Anderson, including bassist Aaron Jassenoff, drummer Jackson Katz, and trumpeter Daniel Fox. Their 2019 album, Actors, skewed even deeper in this direction with lush, dreamy production.
As a band, Slow Hollows went their separate ways in 2020, though Anderson continued to write new material on his own. The group had been his brainchild since his teenage years, and he ultimately decided to carry on using his Slow Hollows as his solo moniker. Bullhead, the ruminative first outing of this solo era, arrived in early 2024, five years after his previous release.
