About Me

Central Deli Band formed in December 2003 and played its first show on April 10, 2004 at the Whyalla Fishy Fringe festival. The homemade, full length LP ...May Contain Traces of Nut was launched at The Jade Monkey in Adelaide later that year.
The band played the Big Day Out in February of 2005. Shortly afterward, world-famous DJs The Avalanches hand-picked Central Deli Band as their support act on the SA leg of their Brains tour. The rest of that year was spent at Adelaide's best live venues, including The Gov, The Exeter, Jive, the Jade Monkey, UniBar, Rhino Room, and Wayville Showgrounds. The band was featured on the Sound of MISA album, ThreeD Radio' s Depth Charge 4, and nominated for two SAMI awards.
2006 began with the Adelaide O'Ball in March, sharing the stage with No Through Road, Pharaohs, Wolf+Cub, and Peter Coombe, among others. More big gigs followed, supporting visitors like Gerling, Ground Components, Midnight Juggernauts, Valentinos, Dungen, Faker and The Grates. In October CDB played its biggest ever show (HQ with The Grates) and then embarked on its first tour, hitting The Forum and The Espy in Melbourne.
As of the band's split (December 21, 2006) the EP Live at the George Foreman Grill remains unreleased, despite two years of recording sessions recently drawing to a close. These recordings will be made public in the near future, so stay tuned.
