Slomo Sapiens originated back in 2016 when lead guitarist & frontman Ceallaigh Manaaki moved across the planet from New Zealand to America. If you believe in horoscopes, ghosts, and fairy tales, you might think it was fate that Ceallaigh met Greg Geiger (bass) and Jon Pritchard (drums) within his first week in Philadelphia. The three piece dropped their debut EP Hot Milk in 2018 as a concise thesis on Psych, Garage, and Sludge Rock.
As the band evolved, they dug deeper into a psychedelic abyss and crafted their first LP Cabin Fever Dreams. The aptly titled record’s release coincidentally paired with the entire world shutting down for the first time in March of 2020. With no end in sight, the band couldn’t help but feel that fate had played a dirty trick on them this time. The darkest moments on CFD highlight the horrors of isolation with references to Kenneth Anger & Allister Crowley while pulling musical influence from The Cramps & The 13th Floor Elevators.
Since then, the boys explored their Stoner Metal alter egos on Slömos Vol 1 in 2021 and joined forces with multi-instrumentalist Michael Sanzo (Dawn Drapes, XIXIX) to expand their presence in Philadelphia’s prolific and infinite music scene.
The band is currently putting the final touches on their sophomore album The Holy Babble and are set to release the first single ‘Tongues II’ on September 8th, 2023.
