Dublin band Aslan are back after five years with their brand new single 'Hold On', released today to co-align with tickets going on sale for their Live at the Drive In gigs in Dublin and Cork.

Aslan will perform at Leopardstown Racecoure on July 30, and will head to Cork Showgrounds on August 2, 2020 with 3pm afternoon and 7pm evening shows.

The song has already garnered major airplay on national and regional radio, with the band hoping to top the Irish Singles Chart for the first time in their lengthy history.

The track examines "life and what it means at its core", with frontman Christy Dignam expressing satisfaction with the end result.

"I think it's a great song and we put a lot of work into it, I'm very proud of it."

'Hold On' is a "sweeping ballad of love, life and hope" mingled with Aslan's niche, anthemic sound.

Aslan have also announced rescheduled performances dates for 2021;

January 23rd, 2021 - Black Box, Galway.

February 6th, 2021 - Amber Springs, Wexford.

March 16th, 2021 - The Olympia Theatre, Dublin.
