Following the highly praised debut single 'Surely', the (by public and press) much-appreciated album 'Falling Into Place', the Focus Trophy at the ZAMU Awards 2006 and a collection of fantastic concerts, DELAVEGA withdrew from the public eye during the winter to write a very promising second album.
First single 'Little Clouds' (built around the deep soul of front-lady Elke Bruyneel) has already been playing on the radio over the last few months. The incorporation of Elke - a jeune première who likes to rub her voice up to those of vocal queens like Ella Fitzgerald, Beth Gibbons and Angie Stone - was a great move musically. With her arrival Delavega last year began a promising new chapter involving dub, noise, (nu) jazz, funk, soul and urgent rock as musical sources.
The new album THE DAY AFTER is out OCT 22nd. DELAVEGA will be presenting their 2nd full album to the audience NOVEMBER 14th at the Handelsbeurs in Gent and NOVEMBER 22nd at the Ancienne Belgique in Brussels.
