Grand Slam

Rock band Grand Slam has released their latest single and video, “Pirate Song,” an energetic and multifaceted anthem featuring a whimsical video that captures the band members in pirate-style escapades on the open seas.

The track was born from a chance encounter during a filming trip in Greece. Laurence Archer, the band’s founding guitarist, recounts how he connected with a local musician who introduced him to the traditional Greek songs, many of which tell tales of piracy and smuggling. Inspired by the melodies and rhythms, Archer crafted the song with a unique twist, using his guitar in a new way to evoke the spirit of the sea.

Vocalist Mike Dyer shared his excitement about the recording process, revealing that “Pirate Song” marked his first-ever live, one-take vocal performance on a demo—a feat he had long admired in other artists. “I’ve always wanted to nail a one-take vocal, just like Daryl Hall,” Dyer said. The song was later finished in Guadeloupe, a French Caribbean island, where the band was reunited while Archer was filming for Death in Paradise.
