    Loophole is correct. Slide is from the USA and their website is SlideMusicGroup.com Their debut album is releasing in 2010. In the nineties, their first track appeared on R.E.X. records, so they do have a rather long history . The band has had a trademark on their name for a long time

    There is actually another band called Slide that started out in 1994 from the ashes of another band called Sincerely Paul, then they broke up shortly after. They reunited a little over a year and a half ago. They are electronic/dance, but with a focus on pop songcraft. They've released 3 singles to date: "January (Feel Like Dancing)", "The Black and the Blue", and "Dime Store Queer".
