" The Slide deliver the raw rock 'n' roll thrills of classic AC/DC with the groove of vintage Black Crowes. The best new rockband in the world? - Believe it. " That's how Paul Elliott of Classic Rock Magazine describes The Slide - a band originally from Sweden but now based in London with a new EP called " A Matter Of Mind " coming out in January, here's their interview! Describe The Slide's sound in one sentence? Gritty rock n roll with great melodies over great riffs - The key to it all. When and where was The Slide formed? It goes way back. The Slide were founded in 2006, in a small room in Sweden. Through the years we've had members in and out of the band. It was me and the singer at the time, followed by another guitarist, Freddie, who together shared a vision of creating something that's been lacking for years - the best new rock band in the world. We constantly hung out, making new songs for our new band. At the time we w...

You may have noticed this but due to technical issues, we had to temporarily suspend all airplays as yesterday around 2PM EST yesterday (Novemer 15). Plays have resumed as of noon today (November 16). In other words - no band was getting Paid Plays for about 20 hours. This was a system-wide decision - not related to anything about your account or your music . If you had a campaign under way yesterday - it resumed between 11AM and noon today (EST). You can always check the real time feed for the most recent update on your Paid Plays. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience - y our business is important to us so thank you very much for your patience and understanding. If you have any questions - please email us at airplay@jango.com.  We will have a hard time answering the phone today since a lot of you are calling in to get an update so email or chat is likely the fastest way to get an answer from us today. Thanks again for letting us promote your music /The Jango Airplay ...
