Event information

Back in the post-Lizzy days, Laurence Archer wrote and performed with Phil Lynott.  Grand Slam was cut short in it’s prime, leaving a hole in the fabric of rock music. Laurence has nurtured a long-term plan to rebuild the Grand Slam machine, and here it is, blue printed and ready to race.

This new band (Laurence along with compadres Mike Dyer, Benjy Reid and Rocky Newton), honours the traditions of rock and Laurence’s song writing dynasty, but also looks to the future – the classic tracks sit alongside a set of brand spanking new rock anthems that embody the same ethos of freedom, positivity and adrenalin that ran through Grand Slam in 1984.

With this pedigree, it is no surprise that this band is a live monster, ready and raring to ransack stages around the world. Look out for tour announcements soon.

The brand new album Wheel Of Fortune was released to critical acclaim on Silver Lining Music June 7th 2024.

On tour with SAXON from February 2025
