The Slippery Hill Boys are the perfect band for any hoedown, hog roast, Wild West party or wedding barn dance. From cool laid back blues to blisteringly
fast bluegrass classics this band is a must for all lovers of Americana.
These good ole boys will take you on a journey to the southern states
of America with musical purity and enthusiasm that is so sadly lacking
from much of today's music.
Need to dance at your party or hoedown? No problem, the band's barn dance caller
will make sure you don't put a foot wrong.
Though the band may think they're in Kentucky, The Slippery Hill Boys are
based in North Staffordshire, England.
