Chicago-by-way-of-Madison alt-rockers Slow Pulp released their third studio album, Melodie, in mid-September. Now they’re headed to The Sylvee on Nov. 21 as headliners — a milestone for the band. “It feels like a true homecoming,” says vocalist Emily Massey. “We’ve never played The Sylvee before, and it’s absolutely bonkers to us that we get to play a headlining show there.” Melodie builds off their 2020 debut Moveys and 2023 sophomore album Yard. Each album has provided an opportunity for the band to grow as musicians and adapt their songwriting and recording process, say Massey and co-writer Henry Stoehr. For Melodie, Massey and Stoehr split songwriting and co-production duties to streamline the process. “We wanted to write a lot and be consistent,” says Stoehr.
