    hows it going, just recommending a great up and coming irish rock band that i heard recently to everyone,their album aint out yet but it has been produced by the legendary producer Chris Tsangarides ( thin lizzy ).
    They actually supported the current thin lizzy on their latest tour of ireland, anyone manage to catch them?

    anyway i think their music is the most exciting on the current irish circuit anybody else want to jump on the bandwagon can visit their site www.glydermusic.com and check out some of their tracks which are available on site.

    they just added a forum, link is on the above website,record companies sniffing around so try add some support, thanks

    the album is complete but is not released at the moment, the band decided to fund the production themselves, so now they are currently considering a number of potential record deals - news is expected soon on that front.

    for now though you can download 2 pre-production tracks from the website www.glydermusic.com or listen to some fully produced album tracks on www.myspace.com/glyder

    your best bet is to email the guys from glyder on the site in my sig down below, they are very nice guys and really down to earth but i dont know how luck you will be :D or how sensitive they are about it :confused: ,

    i guess this means you like the song?
