Luxury Stranger, Commitment And Discipline.
By Cassandra on Dec 6, 2010 | In Features | 1 feedback »

News from the Luxury Stranger camp is that Luxury Stranger's second album titled 'Commitment And Discipline' is due to be released some time in December and you'll be able to buy it from December 31st. It will primarily be available from the Luxury Stranger website and from the merch stall at Luxury Stranger gigs although Simon is typically working very hard on behalf of the band and is dealing with getting the album into various UK and European record shops as well as online shops.
Since November Luxury Stranger has been rehearsing and writing new material with a new line-up for the band that will be unveiled at a special charity show in Leicester on 15th January 2011 at The Shed. The show, in aid of the charity MND, will also have Rhombus on the bill. Rehearsals have stepped up a pace to get the band fit and ready for their upcoming European dates with ChameleonVox (ex The Chameleons). At the moment it is unclear whether the new material will be released as a third album or a pre- album.
The new line-up has come about due problems that only recently came to light. The new 'high profile' recruits share Simon's belief in Luxury Stranger so he's fairly confident that things will be regenerated quite nicely.
Chris and Paul decided to leave the band fairly abruptly, but ever the professional, Simon turned up to the Ashton-Under-Lyne gig as planned and took the opportunity to do a 45 minute acoustic special set and trimmed things down a bit. As is the way of these things it's turned out to be therapeutical in it's own way. The new Luxury Stranger promises to ''bring out more of the art and darkness in the band's character'' according to the irrepressible Simon.
The MND gig is at The Shed, 5 Yeoman St, Leicester LE1 1UT
ChameleonVox gig dates are:
25th January 2011 - The Forum, Bielefeld, Germany
27th January 2011 - Werkhof, Hagen, Germany
28th January 2011 - Gigant, Apeldoorn, Netherlands
29th January 2011 - Nieuwe Nor, Heerlen, Netherlands
30th January 2011 - Winterborn Festival, Baroeg, Rotterdam, Netherlands
The Luxury Stranger website is currently being reconstructed so you may want to go to their Facebook and My Space pages for up to date information.
