Whatever happened to The Slow Club?

07/01/2023 227

Back in 1990, a song called Shout Me Down was dropped by The Slow Club. This was followed up in 1991 with “Rosalie” and “When Loves Come Down” and then just like that gone.

We searched high and low for a video link to the track “Shout Me Down” but the best we could do was this video clip.

Who were The Slow Club

The Slow Club were a pop/rock band from Melbourne Australia. They were active from 1989 to 1991. The band was made up of

Rob Dean – Guitars and Backing Vocals
Tom Hosie – Drums and Percussion
Roger Mason – Keyboards and Piano
Roger McLachlan – Guitar
Philip Hartl – Violin
Andrew Sefton – Vocals

I gotta tell you there’s not much out there on the slow club, Some of the members of the band had careers with other bands and have since moved on to other things. I cannot find much on Andrew Sefton the Lead Vocalist, if you know anything leave a comment below! What I do know, he went on with a band called “Big Whiskey”.

Big Whiskey

Big Whiskey released an album in 1994 titled The Distance, it was a blues/rock album With 12 Tracks. Rosalie was not on the album but was on the World of Wonders album.

Robert Dean

Now things seem to get a bit murky, in my research I found The slow Club was formed in 1989. But In a recent interview on interviews.org, he says he formed the band in 1990. Robert Dean had already established himself in the music industry before TSC.

So to get straight to the point Robert Dean came to Australia to work with another band, but had to return to England because his Visa ran out. It was while he was in England, Tom Hosie, found Andrew Sefton. Robert Returned to Australia and The Slow Club was formed.

The Ending Of The Slow Club

The ending of TSC was due to Robert Dean not being able to renew his visa once more and having to return to England to renew it. Fate stepped in and Robert went in a completely different direction – Peru.
