SLIDE are an acoustic band from Leeds playing a mixture of traditional songs and tunes (Celtic/English/American), covers (Richard Thompson, Show of Hands, Woody Guthrie, Pentangle etc.) and original material. Both Tom and Derek write and arrange tunes, and both Tom and Neil contribute songs. The range of instruments speaks for itself, but SLIDE is not about eclecticism or virtuosity. It's about good Celtic roots music, filtered though 50 years of backbeat, and presented in a refreshing, accessible style that should delight non-folkies just as easily as it satisfies the die-hard trad fan. SLIDE has a distinctive sound and style somewhere between folk, bluegrass, rock and pop that is uniquely its own, and which puts a fresh edge on everything they do.
