Indie alt band Baton Rouge West Without just released a new EP. The lead off single ‘Slow’ which isn’t slow, but a more uptempo and updated version of Coldplay, but still very much original with its unique blend of harmonies and a danceable electro beat. As far as the recording process Alex Holeman, bass/vocals notes “We probably went into the studio with 15 or 20 songs and song ideas and whittled it down to seven or eight that ended up being recorded and out of those some of them were rearranged and reproduced several times and then out of those we have the five songs that made the album.” They have performed alongside with Plain White Ts, Panic! at the Disco, and Cher Lloyd.
