After headlining their own show at Marlborough's idyllic Furneaux Lodge for 700 people Esra Dekan have settled in for 4 shows at Auckland's Empire Tavern.

There are plans to release their 13 song album of live demos recorded at York St Studios in December, which should include 'All Right' - a regular on JuiceTV since late last year. The band are reported to be "so impressed with the sound quality" that the CD could be available for purchase at their gigs or by request on their webpage before the end of the month.

To request Esra Dekan - 'All Right', email: [email protected].

Interesting - Senior Dekan here: Don't worry Jezza, contrary to some opinion NONE of us are nice guys (except Wez), ALL of us are posers (we just don't all own sunnies...) and for those who haven't seen us in a year, you would be welcomed back with open arms.

"I've been out of sorts, but then again - it's all right"

Maybe the comments of someone whose friend's band got beat? I've seen them twice - the N Shore regional final last year when I went to watch a friend's band, Ubiquitous and at the Empire when they played before Op Shop. Good songs. Of COURSE they're better than they were a year ago...

Hmmm. Esra Dekan, a band with a name that just ain't clever no matter which way you read it (for those of you who haven't clicked - read it backwards). Saw these guys at a Battle of the Bands night once and as good as they were I wasn't really left with a "give me more" feeling. Then again that was a year ago now, they may have gotten better. Nice guys except for the bass player who was the poser from hell (sunglasses at night, come on man?!).

Esra Dekan have just finished the recording of their first single, "All Right" at Parnell's York Street Studios. Engineer Clint Murphy has done an oustanding job on what was originally a purely acoustic guitar driven track and we wait with interest to see how it is received by radio and television audiences.

The corresponding video is in the post-production stage after a 2 day shoot with the Independent Film Company of NZ (IFCONZ). Director Ivan Slavov has perfectly depicted the song's honest opening phases and soaring conclusion.

The song's main hook "I've been out of sorts, but then again it's all right..." may well become a catch phrase for the masses.

Esra Dekan have booked into Auckland's York Street Studios in October to record their first single 'All Right', a track the band describe as "honest, acoustic, rhythmical and melodic". They are currently in discussion with film-makers with regards the video for this song.
