DE LA CRUZ
Frontiers Records is pleased to announce the signing of Australian band DE LA CRUZ for the release of their forthcoming debut album which will be entitled "Street Level".
Described by Geoff Barton of Classic Rock Magazine: "like a Pomptastic, Hyper-active Leppard!", DE LA CRUZ debuted with a self financed 6 songs EP which caused a stir in the Hard Rock scene Worldwide.
Founded in 2011 after Gold Coast guitarist Casey Jones met with Auckland-born singer Roxxi Catalano, the guys immediately had the vision to start an 80s style rock band. Casey knew the best musicians to complete their lineup, Lacey Lane on drums, Grant Daniell on bass and the second guitarist Rory Joy.
DE LA CRUZ came to the attention of Frontiers Records in the winter of 2012 and they finally decided to join forces. Frontiers will release the band's first full length album entitled "Street Level" in early 2013. In the meanwhile all fans of classic Leppard, Skid Row, Kiss and Motley Crue should immediately check out the new album teaser following this link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHvG3-UkCAA&feature=plcp
