The New Deal's live interpretation of house, trance, breakbeat and drum and bass brought electronic music to live music fans and the band quickly found themselves at the forefront of a new genre of music, dubbed "Live Electro". The New Deal's ten-year career has produced nine records, spawned countless Live Electro bands, garnered numerous award nods and continues to inspire an ever-growing audience throughout North America who flock to their sold-out concerts. Their show at Lee’s Palace on September 6th marks the anniversary of their first pair of gigs at the notorious “Comfort Zone†in downtown Toronto. These were recorded live to cassette tape and shortly thereafter became the band’s debut record, entitled “This Is Liveâ€.
