The ASLAN UNCASE’d album will come with a special bonus CD of Aslan’s performance at last years OXYGEN festival  This was the band’s first time playing at Oxegen and the amazing atmosphere is captured on this 8-track live CD.

Aslan will be launching the album on May 22nd.  Says Christy: “We have always put cover songs on the B sides of our singles since we started out and we have always wanted to release a covers album; we felt now was the right time as it follows on from our last studio album ‘For Some Strange Reason” released in 2007.

Aslan enjoy a loyal and passionate fanbase that other bands would kill for. Their 2005 ‘Platinum Collection’ a 3CD boxset of their hits, b-sides and previously unreleased material, enjoyed massive success, going Triple Platinum within weeks of it’s release. 

Equally as comfortable playing to a few hundred loyal fans in a country bar as they are selling out The Point Theatre, the hardest working Irish band in show business never forget the support and love of their fans, touring constantly up and down the country to perform their now legendary live sets.
