SLACKSTRING is the perfect moniker for the band; laid back, groovy
music providing the soundtrack for summer barbecues and the sport of
sunset watching. Comprised of four guys born and raised adjacent to
the Pacific Ocean in Manhattan Beach, CA, the sound of SLACKSTRING was
crafted as much by the beach lifestyle as it was by local musical
influences from classic bands like The Doors and The Beach Boys to
neighborhood punk pioneers Pennywise and Descendents. Their sound has
been described as Pure Feel-Good Music by L.A. newspaper The Daily
Breeze, and a desert island CD by their legions of dedicated fans.
SLACKSTRING was born out of the long term musical relationship of
Gavin Heaney and Eric Lyman (songwriters/guitarists/vocalists), and
Matt Muir (drums) who have been performing together since their high
school days. Add Brett Thomas on bass and the SLACKSTRING sound is
complete.
Truly a self made band, SLACKSTRING has sold over 5,000 copies of their homemade self-titled CD (aka The Van Album) to fans worldwide, from Russia to Australia. SLACKSTRING emerged from backyard parties to headline venues from Hollywood's House of Blues to the Telus World Ski and Snowboarding Festival in Whistler, B.C. SLACKSTRING's dynamic live show continues to win new fans with every listen. Concerts have paired the band with artists including Jack Johnson, Donavon Frankenreiter, Slightly Stoopid, The Wailers, Common Sense and Grammy award winning
Hawaiian guitarist John Cruz.
SLACKSTRING was recently the musical highlight in award winning
mountain bike movie The Collective and its 'sequel' Roam. The film earned a
nomination for best soundtrack at the X-Dance film festival in large
part to the contribution of the bands three full length songs.
Subsequently, SLACKSTRING's music remains in high demand for various
extreme sports films from surfing to kiteboarding. SLACKSTRING is featured on every episode of the PBS series "Road Trip Nation" in
2006/07.
The highly anticipated follow up album Lay Back pushes the envelope of the band's growth by exhibiting a broad variety of textures and sounds.

Ever since i was a youth, I have always been searching for the truth, But having been told so many lies, Life like good music never dies, So the question is posed, Only who in Heaven knows, why is a man respected when he is dead ? Should'nt that respect be paid to the living INSTEAD.
Alive a man is sufferer of no mean order, But dead he has an estate to the value of a Million and over, I must die one day, You'll all hear people say, Yet praying for Salvation, In corrupted meditation, Storing up wealth, ignoring their health, But, a tree is known by its fruits, There is no life in lies, It's all in the truth.

"Where are we to look for our survival, for the answers to the questions which have never before been posed? We must look, first, to the Almighty God who has raised man above the animals and endowed him with intelligence and reason. We must put our faith in him, that he will not desert us or permit us to destroy humanity which he created in his image. We must look into ourselves, into the depths of our soul. We must become something we have never been, and for which our education and experience and environment have ill-prepared us. We must become bigger than we have been, more courageous, greater in spirit, larger in outlook. We must become members of a new race, owing our ultimate allegiance not to nations, but to our fellow men within the human community."
