Discography
Although newly formed, Deluce's Patent have wasted no time in getting out there and spreading the word. Their first gig was playing support to the super group Dervish as part of the Ballincollig Winter Festival in January 11. From there they played to a packed crowd as part of the UCC tradfest and went on to support Tom Baxter at Feile Na Bealtaine 11. The band have now just finished their debut album with the legendry guitarist Donogh Hennessy which was launched at Dingle Tradfest 11 and at the Cork Folk Festival 11. Samples can be heard on Myspace, Facebook and Soundcloud.
