De La Cruz Street Level

2013, Hailing from the Gold Coast, Australia, De La Cruz are easily one of the most promising Arena Hard Rock bands to come out of underground scene. They came to the attention of the fans when Geoff Barton of Classic Rock Magazine described their sound ´like a Pomptastic, Hyper-active Leppard!` in his review of the band's self financed EP. De La Cruz are born from the meeting between guitarist Casey Jones - a guy born and raised with 80's Rock Music - with Auckland born singer Roxxi Catalano. With Catalano's air-raid siren vocals, street level attitude and Jones fretboard melting riffs and string-searing shred, the pair instantly clicked musically and through a shared passion for 80's arena-style rock and musical respect the dream was started, Jones and Catalano going on to record several demos via the internet over the next few years, until they put together the right line-up, adding Rory Joy on guitar, Grant Daniell on bass and Lacey Lane on drums.
