Brothers on the Slide are a collective of Leeds based musicians who have been performing together for the last four years. At the core of the group are the combined song writing talents of lead vocalist Pete Huckerby and keyboard player Wayne Pollock, backed up by Kenny Higgins ( Bass ), Chris Sharkey ( Guitar ) and Tom Hendricks ( Drums ). "Try" is their debut album which is due for release in July 2007. Wayne is a prolific composer and writes for several other artists as well as his own Jazz trio. He has recently collaborated on releases from Cara Robinson, The Players, Kelly Dickson, Laura Fowles and Corinne Bailey Rae. Pete Huckerby's voice has real Soul and he had been in constant demand as a performer for many years, including a one off performance with Robbie Williams, before starting to write with Wayne Pollock. After an outstanding performance at the Cork Jazz Festival in 2005 the band came to the attention of ITV bosses who made them the focus of the TV special "Leeds Uncovered" which was first broadcast in 2006 on ITV1. Brothers on the Slide continue to tour and are currently working on new material for a follow up to "Try".
