In 2003, one of the great indie rock bands, released “Farewell to the Familiar” on Tooth and Nail Records. Prior to that, they released an independent ep and appeared on I’m Your Biggest Fan Vol. 2, a compilation I worked on and created in 2002. Slow Coming Day were a band until 2006.  They were a great band and I had the opportunity of not only seeing them several times around Orange County, but also booking them at a few different occasions. They were an extrememly underated band and they deserved more promotion than what they got. Lead singer/guitarist Orion Walsh, has gone on to do a solo career which you can check out here.

They released one final ep in that year (2006) called “Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Peace” which has been unavailable “officially” online until now. Check out the free download of this ep, below.
