From mesmeric trance to nail biting energy slide entice the
listener on a journey of musical exploration. Be it a live
performance or a carefully crafted recording slide will

"Powerhouse quartet of traditional musicians with attitude
bringing drawing room grandeur and high spirits together"
Siobhan Long, Irish Times
Slide have braced many of the main stages & festivals at home
and abroad; from the National Concert Hall to the Cambridge
Festival, England and from the headline act of the German Folk
Festival Tour to the Inerceltic Festival of L'Orient, France.
Formed with an all-star line up of award winners including
male vocalist of the year Andrew Murray, Slide are the living
proof of how innovation need not compromise tradition.
"While there's plenty of action and flamboyance in Slides
music, The Flying Pig takes the Dervish/Bothy Band /De Dannan
formula and turns it 360 degrees on its head successfully
merging youthful arrogance and swagger with traditional
expertise" John OÆRegan, Folk Roots Magazine
As artists, having collaborated with such names as Bill
Whelan, Damian Dempsey, Hazel O'Connor, John Spillane,
StocktonÆs Wing, Dan·, Niamh Parsons & The Black Family, it is
of little wonder why the music of Slide is held in such high
regard by contemporary & audience alike.
ôPowerhouse quartet of traditional musicians with attitude"
From "best newcomers 2001" to "Young Musicwide award winners
2006" Slide continue to encapsulate and develop the ever
growing, living tradition.
"Slide... the future of Irish Music" Radio 1, Ireland
With the recording of the new album "Overneath" and the recent
addition of powerful vocalist Andrew Murray Slide are set to
become a tour de force on the world stage.
ôThis band is taking Irish music to a new place. Their music
will touch people far beyond the realm of traditional musicö
Donal Lunny
