Dallas-based singer-songwriter, Esteban Flores, wh Dallas-based singer-songwriter, Esteban Flores, who performs under the musical moniker Slow Joy (@slowjoyslowjoy), is readying his debut LP, “A Joy So Slow at Times I Don’t Think It’s Coming,” for release on Friday, May 16.

The record, produced by Mike Sapone in Massachusetts and far west Texas, is a gorgeous fusion of turn-of-the-century alt-rock and emo-tinged pop, alternately sweepingly cinematic and achingly intimate, and one of the sharpest records to emerge from North Texas yet this year.

KXT writer Preston Jones spoke with Flores about how he approaches collaborative songwriting, the way making an album changed him and what he hopes people take away from his debut LP.
