The band quickly went into production on their first CD DELIVERANCE, which took about one year to fully produce. The CD received wonderful reviews in the Central Florida press and spurred the band on to play top venues in Central Florida and to national openers for Eddie Money, Survivor, David Allen Coe. During this time Real Cool Traders was also chosen by Tabula Rasa magazine as the Best Band Pick of 1996. All this led to their signing with Forbidden Records and forthcoming national distribution through Navarre. The new CD due out soon will be the culmination of all the passion and energy that we believe makes this band truly astonishing. Forbidden welcomes them aboard.
