Also, Del makes his own music & released a CD in 2001 as DE'LEMMI's CARAVAN BASEMENT BAND, featuring another Brass Bedfellow, Lemmi Schwarz. In 2002, Del toured across Europe with Dead Bros, culminating in a Russian TV appearance where he played a makeshift drumkit of box, coffee cup & piece of paper. Also fronts a 3-piece acoustic trio featuring Chessy Weaver, singing his own tunes & playing acoustic guitar. Released a solo CD in 2004 "God at the bottom of the bottle" & toured Europe once more with DEAD BROS in support of the film & soundtrack release for "FLAMMEND' HERZ". The OTIACS also made it to UK in '04.

Del constantly involves himself in musical, art & theatrical events, he knows his music & is always working on the next exhibition....
