The album features Ali Aslan taking on songs by artists including a heartfelt and emotional version of Gilbert O'Sullivan's 'Nothing Rhymed', a soon to be a live classic 'Maggie May', as well as John Lennon's "Jealous Guy" which will be available to download on 15th May.  Check out the full tracklisting below!

The Ali AslanUNCASE'd album will come with a special bonus CD of Aslan 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.
  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.

Watch Aslan "Made in Dublin".




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.
