A night of heartfelt country, Americana and folk from San Francisco and South London for our October Live in the Library.

Slow Motion Cowboy

Lead by San Francisco’s Pete Frauenfelder, Country Americana 4-piece, Slow Motion Cowboys, recount the tales of the road with a cool and soulful feel, heavy on the harmonies and hawaiian guitar. Playing in the country punk outfit Trainwreck Riders over the last 10 years, Pete cut his teeth on the DIY circuit, playing house shows and bars from coast to coast. With a stripped down approach to folk music, the tunes of SMC resonate with honesty and heartbreak under the framework of traditional country arrangements.
