Slate

Yampy Promotions Presents Slate & Guests

Emerging from the depths of Cardiff’s burgeoning music scene, and heirs to their
country’s lineage of storytellers, are Slate. The four-piece reimagine the gothic foundations of new-wave, charging their sound with melodic force and the white- knuckled intensity of post-punk. Their introductory singles ‘Tabernacl’ and ‘St Agatha’ found praise in the NME, Clash, So Young, DIY and more, as well as radio champions in Huw Stephens and Steve Lamacq on BBC 6Music, and Jack Saunders on BBC Radio 1.

A reclamation of Welsh identity, and love of poetry which is woven into their live
performances, are influences which announce Slate as a fascinating and necessary
arrival.
