GLIDE with TOBY MARTIN (Youth Group) and special guests: ON SALE NOW!
The heyday for Sydney based Glide saw the band connect with a generation of music lovers in the 90s through the gifted song writing, guitar playing and singing of front man and creative leader William Arthur. Acknowledged at the time as one of Australia’s most accomplished and original songwriters, Arthur’s untimely passing in 1999 left behind a musical legacy that will now be acknowledged with the release of Glide’s entire back catalogue through iTunes. For the first time since the late 90s, the original Glide line-up will perform a very special show at the East, with Youth Group’s Toby Martin on vocals, bringing to life once more the work of William Arthur.
