Slow Glows was founded in fall 2016 by drummer Rachel Thode and guitarist/vocalist Kelli Redding. As of March 2021, the lineup includes recently-added bassist Rae Fisher. Slow Glows released several EPs and a string of kaleidoscopic music videos before sharing their debut album "Stargaze Rock n Roll" in late summer 2019. Since then, the band has played shows and festivals locally and regionally including the Blink Festival and Cincinnati's Fountain Square.

Despite a cancelled tour in March 2020, the band made a comeback in the summer of 2021 with their first sold out show at Radio Artifact. The set was recorded and mixed live and is available on all streaming platforms as part of the Radio Artifact Label. Their new album, "But What Do I Know" is set to release on April 29th via local label Rose Hill Records, and the band will play several weeks of tour dates in the midwest and along the east coast. They will be kicking off the tour at Ruby Tuesday Live in Columbus Ohio on April 29th and and will have their local record release party at Northside Tavern in Cincinnati on May 14th!

Slow Glows has been described as an upcoming shoegaze staple not to be missed, with plenty of praise for their music both locally and abroad. Their songs have been featured on various radio podcasts, blogs, and playlists, including CincyMusic, Citybeat, Live Eye TV, DKFM Shoegaze Radio, Indie In Red, Psychgazer, The Reverb, Shoegazer Sanctuary Music, Somewherecold Records, The Blog that Celebrates Itself and more.
