The Slide Machine Release Debut Single 'Blue Sky' (Single Review)

From the grey area of Stoke-on-Trent, The Slide Machine brighten it up with their new debut single 'Blue Sky'. The five-piece orchestrate all of their solo talents within this track and take you back to a good time you never even knew existed.

Immediately the track radiates 60s surf rock vibes, the lead vocals from Tom Lockett are a touch rockabilly crossed with a blues twist and a slight country twang. 'Blue Sky' takes you in a time machine trip back to the 1960s with its classic uplifting chord progressions, rhythmic saxophone and bluesy vocals.

"My honey baby, my little angel babe has flown away, has flown away... alright play it boy!"

After this line in comes the sax solo from Ben Garrott, and who doesn't love a saxophone solo?! A perfect, nostalgic groove machine summer track is what 'Blue Sky' is.

'Blue Sky' will be available to stream and pre-order THIS FRIDAY on July 12th, and will be officially released on August 9th.

To celebrate their debut release, The Slide Machine will be launching and partaking in several shows, listed below:

July 13th - Alsager Music Festival, Cheshire
August 8th - Artisan Tap, Stoke-on-Trent (Launch Show)
August 24th - Pig & Applestock Festival, Northampton
