This past weekend, Slow Pulp made their television debut on CBS Saturday Morning to perform an array of highlights from Yard, one of 2023’s most beloved records. The Chicago-via-Madison quartet composed of vocalist Emily Massey, guitarist/producer Henry Stoehr, bassist Alex Leeds, and drummer Teddy Mathews released Yard last fall to a warm embrace from critics and fans alike, leading to features in Variety, Billboard, The FADER, Washington Post, and more.
On CBS Saturday Morning, the band played three standout tracks from Yard - “Slugs,” “a gentle and insistent…sugared, summery indie track” (Paste), the “punky” (The FADER) “Doubt,” and the “cozy and lilting” (Stereogum) “Broadview.”
