SLOW TOWN CLOCK
"An album of mythology, canny charm and unhurried pleasure... delicately crafted and deftly executed." - NARC. Magazine
"The unobtrusive arrangements here are uniformly fantastic. An album to live with." - The Crack
"A lovely album, sometimes stark and simple, sometimes musically rich and complex... You should seek it out." - folking.com
NEW SINGLE "LITTLE LEGS"
A newly recorded song for 2024
Jamie wrote this song in the spring of 2018 just after having walked the Calderdale Way, a 50 mile circular route in West Yorkshire. It's a song about a love of walking, the changing season, the journey of life with its ups and downs, getting lost in nature, appreciating the small things, travelling home to someone you care about, and also, of course, it's a song about having quite short legs.

ABOUT SLOW TOWN CLOCK
Scottish singer-songwriter
Slow Town Clock is the music of Glasgow born singer-songwriter and guitarist Jamie Leven, encompassing multiple projects, spanning several genres, and often accompanied by a varied and ever-expanding band of musical friends.
No matter the project, the line-up or the style, at the heart of Slow Town Clock's music is wide-ranging and thoughtful songwriting that seeks to chart our inner and outer landscapes, and to weave together the miraculous, the mysterious and the mundane.
With influences ranging from Rabbie Burns to Nick Cave, Slow Town Clock stands at the crossroads where traditional British folk song and modern alternative music meet. Jamie has a deep interest in song and verse in its purest form, but also, increasingly, in the exploration of the seemingly infinite possibilities that come with writing, arranging and producing records.
‘A class act…a deft finger picker and melodious singer.’ - Steve Tilston
