The Slide Stops: Folk Ensemble in New York

About The Slide Stops

The Slide Stops are a country group heard in New York City rooms where songs travel without much amplification, including Lucinda’s. Their set leans on slide guitar, close vocal harmonies, and a steady backbeat drawn from honky-tonk and Americana traditions. They work in the working-band mode, tightening arrangements through regular live performance rather than studio polish. The result favors clarity over spectacle, with attention paid to storytelling and tempo as much as tone.
