𝗚𝗥𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗦𝗟𝗔𝗠 - 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗥𝗘 𝗚𝗢𝗘𝗦 𝗠𝗬 𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗧 ❤️ 🚘 the first single from the upcoming album 𝗪𝗛𝗘𝗘𝗟 𝗢𝗙 𝗙𝗢𝗥𝗧𝗨𝗡𝗘. Pre-order now: https://lnk.to/GrandSlamWheelOfFortune #grandslam #grandslamrocks #theregoesmyheart Grand Slam co-founding member Laurence Archer, and front man Mike Dyer, make it extraordinarily clear that theirs has been a true journey of destiny, one where early unions ended up leaving unfinished business on the table, and one which finally sees Grand Slam attending to said-business with the brand-new album Wheel Of Fortune. Their story is one of persistence and craft, ensuring that the best elements of Grand Slam’s history were absorbed and fused with the experiences and drive of relationships stretching decades. However, do not make the mistake of thinking this is a band returning from a past: it’s a band fulfilling their present and future with a willfulness and desire that permeate every song on Wheel Of Fortune, from Archer’s faultless, fearless fret-driven song architecture on ‘Spitfire’ to Dyer’s swagger and style on ‘There Goes My Heart’. There are moments such as ‘Come Together (In Harlem)’ where the moody strut of original co-founder Phil Lynott is unmistakable, yet the multi-layered steamy swing of ‘Pirate Song’ makes it very clear where Grand Slam are coming from. “I want everybody to see this as a new band… and anybody that hasn’t heard Grand Slam since 1984, I want them to see this as a fresh invigoration of the project moving into the modern times.” – Laurence Archer Joined by Benjy Reid on drums and Rocky Newton on bass, some best laid plans for the band’s rebirth were set for take-off until Covid-19 brought the world to a standstill (it is one of the main reasons Hit The Ground will also be enjoying a 2024 release alongside Wheel Of Fortune). However, the creative fire and will to propel Grand Slam got stronger still. “We have a direction that is in my heart. It’s a tribal place. This band is something very special; I’m slightly biased I know, but God, I’m really proud of that.” – Mike Dyer Wheel Of Fortune is a testimony to both Archer’s songwriting architecture and Dyer’s powerful love of language: he wastes no time sinking his teeth into the storytelling aspect of the songs, from WWII fighter pilots to ethereal reflections on lost loved ones and near-death experiences, Dyer is a supreme storyteller. “The way I look at it is that from writing those songs with Phil in 1984 to now, my writing style and the way I write, haven’t really changed that much,” offers Archer. “I’m not a shredder, I prefer to write songs and build that way. So, there’s that timeless continuity in how I write, fusing with all the experiences we’ve had as people over the years. I put the basis of the song together, I have a rough melody line, I might write the chorus line, and I give that to Mike who goes away and comes back with his thing: it’s not my thing, it’s his thing and it just works! His vocal tone – his ability – fits everything that I write.” Out Now, “There Goes My Heart” is the first single to be released from Grand Slam’s brand new studio album, Wheel Of Fortune. “Laurence sent me ‘There Goes My Heart’, and with total respect to Laurence, I’m not a man of ‘hearts’ in that sense,” chuckles Dyer. “So instead of singing about the ex, I twisted on it. It sounds like your heart, but what you’re singing about is your E-Type Jag. We shot the video for that in Spain, and that very much has a twist in it too.” **** Video Directed, Produced and Edited by Paul M Green Assistant Directors Ben Ripley & Gwyn Hemmings Camera operators: Ben Ripley & Gwyn Hemming  Paul M Green **** Follow Grand Slam: Official Website: http://grandslamrocks.com Facebook:   / grandslamrocks   Instagram:   / grandslamrocks   Twitter:   / grandslamrocks   Grand Slam: Laurence Archer - guitar Mike Dyer - vocals Rocky Newton - bass Benjy Reid - drums
