There's a couple of characters Jordan Luck would love you to meet.

The Jordan Luck Band debut album ‘Not Only....But Also' is set for release next Friday, and it's the first time the front man has recorded since The Exponents.

The Jordan Luck Band's debut album ‘Not Only....But Also' comes out on April 29.

To support the release, Jordan and the band are embarking on the 12-date Edens of Suburbia tour which stops in at Mount Maunganui's Totara St on June 3.

'Be prepared for an exhilarating, exceedingly entertaining night of music,” says Jordan. 'We'll be giving the new album a damn good playing on the tour; it's a really good listen.”

Featuring none other than Jordan on vocals, he's backed by guitarist Bryan Bell, ‘Beaver' on Drums, bassist Rich Mixture and Joe Walsh on guitar.

For their debut the band asked fans to name the album, with Jordan saying ‘Not Only....But Also' fitted in well with the music and had an ambiguity which he enjoyed.

Lyrically, he describes the 11-track album as diverse in the sense it features an assortment of characters who feature in the songs.

One of those characters is late Dance Exponent bandmate Steve Cowan, who died in 1986.

The inspiration for the song ‘Stevie', Jordan credits his friend as the man who instigated his and fellow Dance Exponent bandmate Brian Jones' move to Christchurch in 1981.

Jordan says it's one of those songs he couldn't have written 30 years ago.

'Fact is, without Steve a lot of this for me and the other guy's in the band, it never would have happened,” says Jordan.

'I remember getting lost while driving up to Auckland to record ‘Victoria'. I remember talking with Steve about her, wondering what Victoria thought of the song. Not that we knew what would happen.”

The Jordan Luck Band's debut album ‘Not Only....But Also' releases on April 29.

The Weekend Sun has two double passes to give away to two lucky reader who can finish this sentence: ‘Not Only….'.
