Slow Meadow is Houston multi-instrumentalist Matt Kidd. Kidd's releases as Slow Meadow have been celebrated by the New York Observer, NPR's Stephen Thompson, Echoes' John Diliberto, and <a href="spotify:artist:4IVAbR2w4JJNJDDRFP3E83" data-name="6LACK">6LACK</a> who sampled Lachrymosia for the platinum-selling song <a href="spotify:track:5irqvOUbWsUefjZ8KPSQ66" data-name="Luving U">Luving U</a> on his debut album, FREE 6LACK. In 2022, Kidd provided the original soundtrack to the <a href="spotify:artist:0C8ZW7ezQVs4URX5aX7Kqx" data-name="Selena Gomez">Selena Gomez</a> film, "My Mind & Me".
Two years following 2017’s Costero, Slow Meadow returned with its third full-length album Happy Occident, a collection of textured ambient melodies. Fueled by the anxiety derivative of modern life and the frenetic and often uncertain state of these ever-changing times, Happy Occident provides music for reflection. A soundtrack to life’s contemplative moments, and an experience akin to mindfulness meditation.
In 2021, Slow Meadow is back with Upstream Dream, its first wholly new music since 2020’s By the Ash Tree, which bookends a period of creative output that introduced Kidd’s vision of calming and meditative ambient music.
With a foundation of piano, string orchestration, and an ever-evolving electronic palette, Slow Meadow has traversed the borders of neoclassical and minimalist electronics with Upstream Dream, delivering a deeply personal and transportive experience that speaks directly to the ebbs and flows and mundanity and marvels of life. With sublime patience, understated elegance, and surreal atmosphere, Slow Meadow savors the present, remembers the past, and imagines what could be.
