Re-formed Group Originally Fronted by Thin Lizzy's Phil Lynott!
2019 Album Remastered & Revised with New Artwork!

Grand Slam (or Phil Lynott's Grand Slam) are a British (originally Irish) rock band originally formed in 1984 by Phil Lynott (lead vocals and bass guitar), after the breakup of his earlier ensemble Thin Lizzy. Grand Slam was active for a year, and Lynott died in 1986, but the band was revived in 2016 by original members Mark Stanway & Laurence Archer.

In 2016, Mark Stanway reformed Grand Slam together with Laurence Archer, drummer Micky Barker (ex Magnum), bassist Neil Murray (ex Whitesnake, Black Sabbath etc.) and vocalist Stefan Berggren (ex M3 Classic Whitesnake). This line-up made appearances at the Sweden Rock Festival and the Robin 2, Bilston.

In 2018, Laurence Archer with Mike Dyer, Dave Boyce and Benjy Reid recorded a new Grand Slam studio album at VADA Recording studios with producer Matt Terry, reworking 3 of the original Grand slam material written by Phil Lynott, Laurence Archer and Mark Stanway. along with new material written by Laurence Archer in collaboration with Mike Dyer, David Boyce and Benjy Reid. The album was released as Hit the Ground in November 2019. Mark Stanway did not feature in the line-up but contributed keyboards to three of the ten tracks.

Grand Slam's album Hit the Ground has been given a makeover and will be re-released as Hit the Ground – Revised via Silver Lining Music. The reissue has been remastered and features new artwork. Grand Slam was formed in 1984 by Phil Lynott and guitarist Laurence Archer before being forced to break up in 1986. Originally released in 2019, Hit the Ground signalled the Archer (guitar), Mike Dyer (vocals), Benjy Reid (drums) and Rocky Newton (bass) Grand Slam incarnation and is an unequivocal part of the band's re-energizing story. With stylistic salutes and tips to the legendary Lynott melding with the energy and vocal performance of Dyer and Archer's fiery fretboard forays in cuts such as the crunchy "Hit the Ground" and the thrusting "Crazy," Grand Slam stride confidently back into the conscience of classic rock devotees who didn't know what they were missing. Grand Slam are a band firing intention regarding their future… Let the music do the talking!
