Fresh from the announce of their album Race Car Blues – Chapter 2 due for release this month, Slowly Slowly reveals another taste from the record with the release of ‘First Love’ feat. Yours Truly today.

Unsurprisingly the track is a homage to first loves, while Slowly Slowly’s Ben Stewart elaborates that it explores “the rose coloured glasses of retrospection & running from the past.” He adds: “I wanted a song that captured the duality of wanting to forget someone, but holding their memory dearly.”

On collaborating with Yours Truly vocalist Mikaila Delgado on the track, Stewart shares:

“I approached Mikaila about the collaboration as I’m a huge fan of Yours Truly. She instantly understood the vibe we were going for and was incredible to work with. Mikaila was really intuitive with building the vocal arrangement; her harmonies and tonality really made the song feel complete.”

Race Car Blues – Chapter 2 spawned from the same sessions as Slowly Slowly’s critically-acclaimed 2020 album Race Car Blues. The 12 tracks on Chapter 2 now find themselves completing the RCB story and will arrive almost a year to the day since the original album’s release on Friday, February 26.
