Best New Sound 2021 Nomination – Day 04: Slow Coda

Our annual quest for the best returns!

Posted in randomized order, our top ten nominations for the SBS Best New Sound of 2021 will be revealed on our pages from Dec. 6th – 15th!

Join us in congratulating our official nomination of day 04 – Slow Coda!

Our love for the full-length self-titled debut by Slow Coda has certainly not been hidden whatsoever this year – this band based out of LA busted out one of the raddest sets of bonafide Indie-style music in 2021 without question.  A duo of talents consisting of Tavis Balkin and Nicholas Morford – these two proved that their combination of skills & tripped-out melodies produced something undeniably special and outright addictive by every conceivable measure.  After a nearly six-year distance between their first EP releases and their new full-length record, Slow Coda came back shining brighter than ever this year with a bold lineup of beautifully warped material & music destined to reignite their inspiration, and propel them into their future.
