THE SHANE DIIORIO BAND: Don't Break My Heart (Original)
Over the last few years Shane Diiorio has become known in Melbourne, Australia for his soulful and unique approach to the blues. His original writing style draws influence from Reggae, Blues, Rock and Soul. Some of his original S.D.B songs been played on local Melbourne AM and FM radio stations as well as live gig clips on Channel 31.
- "You can really play man!" - Ric Hall (Buddy Guy Band, Chicago) Oscar William - BASS
Oscars is Mr Groove. His musical influces are far and wide and what came out of it is him. He's got so many songs floating around in his bag it's actually quite frightening! Oscar has the ability to improvise, solo and lay down groove like it's going out of fashion. Roderick McLeod - DRUMS
Rods the groove machine (drummer) of the SDB. He's more than capable in most styles of music and brings his energy, feel and creativity to the music giving it life and foot tapping groove. Rods experience and versatility is what makes the SDB tick. LISTEN TO THE 3MDR 97.1 RADIO INTERVIEW (NEW)

£leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!
Hugs from Brazil, Claudio David
