Glyder began its musical journey in 2004 at a Thin Lizzy tribute night in Dublin. Since then the band have released two critically acclaimed albums and two EP's. A strong live following and fan base has built up over the past four years from constant touring with some of the greatest name in rock.
Over the past four years Glyder have opened/toured with Thin Lizzy, Wishbone Ash, Dio, WASP, Thunder, Fish, Y&T, Michael Schenker, Hawkwind, Gotthard, Blue Oyster Cult, The Answer and played at Gods of Metal in Italy in 2007, Sweden Rock festival in 2008 , Raismes festival in France 2008 and Hard Rock Hell 2 in Wales 2008.
Glyder played their first headline tour in Spain in 2008 and headlined to 10,000 rock fans in India in October 2008 proving that they can win over any audience in any live situation.
The debut album produced by Chris Tsangarides got Glyder the attention of the press and a record deal with Bad Reputation records in France. Since then the album has been released in Japan where it peaked at no.8 in the rock and metal charts there. The following album "Playground for life" was critically acclaimed all over Europe and forged the bands reputation as serious songwriters. In 2008 Glyder released an EP "Weather the Storm" which again received critical acclaim and the band are currently working on a third album.
