Artist History deluxe began as an acoustic duo with Ryan McMillan and and Trent Gauthier on vocals and guitars. They wanted to write great pop songs and several months into the project, the pair stepped into the studio and recorded what would become their first ep. Kenny James was added on bass and deluxe was born! Their self-titled ep was released in may 2001 and the single "carry on" recieved local airplay.deluxe played dozens of shows as an acoustic trio and with the help of different drummers, the band began to perform as a full-on amplified live act. after a successful showcase at New Music West 2001 the band began writing new songs and went to Mushroom studios to record with Darren Grahn (Metallica/Nickelback) at the helm. With Pat Steward(Bryan Adams/The Odds) on drums, deluxe recorded it's current ep "so far away", which was mixed at Vancouver'sWarehouse studios. The band is currently performing live and recieving airplay in Vancouver and Victoria Canada with two tracks off their new ep.
