Durban based outfit Deluxe have just released their debut album. The self-titled work has been released on their own, independent record label and will soon available at good CD stores country-wide.
Deluxe formed two year ago when Torsten Fehsenfeld (vocals, acoustic guitar) and Aidan Cornhill (lead guitar) blended their mutual love of great song writing and honest music into a simple duo playing music they knew would move listeners. The term ‘deluxe’ means, literally “of the highest quality”, and this formed the guideline for everything the band produces. The solid groundwork paid off when renowned local musicians showed interest, and soon bass player Roly Struckmeyer and drummer Adam Stanley joined to form a four-piece band. Their sound filled out while keeping the simplicity and spaciousness that first made the songs beautiful and special.
Following these with a live radio performance and appearances at many gigs and major festivals such as Splashy Fen, Flux and Southern Cross, proving themselves as a worthy live act. They have now completed the recording of their debut album “This is Deluxe”. The entire production of which has been funded independently by the band. It comprises of eleven songs, beautifully crafted and co produced by legend David Birch (Squeal) at Tropical Sweat Studios.
Following up on the launch, Deluxe will soon be hitting the road to promote the album in all the major national centres. Watch the press for gig details. For more information, visit
