Grand Slam Slam Vinyl

Grand Slam, the venerable classic rock band initially formed in 1984 by guitarist Laurence Archer and Phil Lynott, are set to release their third album, Slam!, via Silver Lining Music on March 19th, 2027. Building off the success of 2019’s Hit The Ground and 2024’s Wheel of Fortune, Slam! stars the statement Grand Slam line-up of Archer, Mike Dyer on vocals, Benjy Reid on drums, and Rocky Newton on bass, with the quartet delivering a series of passionately crafted classics that provide the perfect rocking antidote to these fraught times.There is a timeless groove and warmth to Slam!’s songs which creates a feel-good, carefree quality alongside some blistering performances. The swing and roll in “Slam Dunk” also holds one of Archer’s many choice solos, while “Lawless” will excite anyone who loves the swagger, smell, and attitude of late-night denim & leather with Dyer’s vocals dripping with grit. Also featured in the 11 songs on Slam! is Grand Slam’s cover of the classic “Whiskey in the Jar” which was originally released as a stand-alone single in 2024. At a time when the world seems so mechanised and cold, Slam! is a searing reminder that organic, flesh-and-blood-created grooves, riffs and dynamics will always rock you to the most positive of places.
