Too Slow, the recent debut long player by Tom Williams & The Boat is undoubtedly one of our albums of the year so far. It is crammed full of brilliant tunes that mix vitriol and wry observation in equal measure jumping from the venom of the wonderful Get Older to the understated ironic sarcasm of Wouldn’t Women Be Sweet.

It has been getting regular plays on our (too) regular long, long drives to Folkestone and we were delighted to discover another of the standout tracks on the album, Concentrate is to be the latest single – due out on 9th May – the song imagines the thoughts and motivations of a home grown suicide bomber!

Take a listen and take a moment to think about ordering the album here – you won’t regret it!
