VIDEO: Warrington’s own Slydigs, a charismatic four-piece band who are leading the rebirth of rock and roll music with their new EP release How animal are you? are coming home to the town they grew up in.
The four friends grew up together finding rock and roll music an effective escape from their seemingly pre-ordained destinies working in factories or on building sites.
With a style of music that perfectly depicts the disillusionment of modern day life, Slydigs have earned themselves an ever expanding fan base and have recently supported rock legends, The Who, on their world tour. As well as The Who, Slydigs have also supported Catfish and The Bottlemen, The View and Pete Doherty, and they also went on two full European tours with Vintage Trouble, playing all over the continent.
It is the dynamic songwriting duo of Dean Fairhurst (vocals/ rhythm guitar) and Louis Menguy (lead guitar) that has brought them to this point and the pair seem to have an affinity for not only writing hard-hitting rock and roll anthems, but more laid-back ballads too that act as thought provoking social commentaries.
Their new EP How Animal Are You? Is out on May 12 – just before they return for the town centre Warrington Music Festival on May 27 to promote the record, on a headline UK and European tour.
