Halstead legend Danielz has secured a CD deal.
Danielz - real name John Williams - has been performing as a tribute act to Marc Bolan for 22 years.
The 54-year-old fronts the band, T.Rextasy, which he claims is the “world’s only official live tribute band dedicated to Marc Bolan and T Rex”.
Before this, Danielz, of Halstead, wrote his own music but never got the break he wanted and so formed T.Rextasy.
However, he has now been handed a CD deal from record company Angel Air Records for his original recordings from the 1980s.
It will be released next Monday and will contain 16 tracks and an eight page colour booklet.
Danielz said: “It is pre-T.Rextasy days, and will show everyone there was infact life before T.Rextasy hit in the 1990s.”
He will also be performing as a special guest with Marc Almond on his sell-out UK tour.
Danielz was asked to be his special guest on the very last number of the set for his end of tour concert on Friday at The Shepherds Bush Empire.
