Sean Riley & The Slowriders

Sean Riley & The Slowriders is a Portuguese band from Coimbra with a sound close to music of Americana roots such as folk, rock and blues.

An auspicious beginning that revealed the intentions of a group of friends that gathered to make music and enjoy themselves.

But the simplicity and hedonism that formed the basis of Farewell were betrayed by a set of 11 songs that projected Sean Riley & the Slowriders onto the main stages of Portugal, authors of one of the best debuts in the history of Portuguese recorded music.

[citation needed] The media attention raised the stakes for the follow-up album, Only Time Will Tell.

"Houses and Wifes", "This Woman" and "Hold on" were some of the tracks played live during the extensive national tour, which included an appearance at festivals, Portuguese cities as well as dates in the UK, Spain and the Netherlands, where the band performed at Eurosonic 2011.
