So says Pete Freedman of the Dallas Observer. Here’s the quote:
“I’ll be damned if Slider Pines isn’t the tightest, cleanest live band in town–not to mention that its obvious Clash, Beatles and Replacements influences are really tough to disapprove of.”

… so says the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, anyway!
Slider Pines has a rootsy, engaging sound on its debut, bridging the gap between the straight-ahead Americana of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and the incisive indie navel-gazing of the Shins.
We recently did a pair of interviews promoting tomorrow’s show at the Corner Lounge in Knoxville. Check ‘em out:
Welcome to sliderpines.com.
We’ve got a lot going on this summer.
We’ll be releasing our first record, “Road, Avenue, Railroad” on Wire To Ear Records and hitting the road to support it.
We’re fine-tuning the details, so enjoy the site and check back to see what’s going on.
