They are working for hours and hours in a small room in Wichtrach (Switzerland) and try to tune up the sound...

In 1994 the Daltons recorded a powerful first tape that was immediately sold out! Then in 1995 the first CD was recorded, 20 minutes full of Daltons-sound! On June 11th and 12th 1999 the Daltons recorded a live CD at the Budway pub in Thun, Switzerland. This CD was presented on 4th of December 1999 in Wichtrach, Switzerland at a damned good party.

The Daltons played more than 300 concerts all over Switzerland and Germany. The powerful shows last up to 3 hours! (once a guitar-player left the stage after half an hour and never came back...)

As a highlight in the band's history The Daltons made a two-weeks Costa Rica/Central America tour in 2003!
