[edit] Music video

The music video for "Slow Down" features the band playing in a Hollywood mansion (which belongs to Butch Walker) during a party. Lead vocalist, William Beckett, steps out of a car while it plays "Attention", a song off the band's first studio album, Almost Here, which "Slow Down" is also from. In between takes, Beckett walks around the house, and is seen by a crew member using the bathroom. After the shooting of the video is done, William, and other party-goers jump into the pool.
