A message to our fans:

‘When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.’

— Jimi Hendrix

First and foremost we put every inch of our heart & soul into our music. We write what we consider to be the absolute truth – a message of love, hope, and self belief. The five members of Diesel Phoenix were brought together by a shared passion for great music. We blend our individual influences to create a unique sound described by some as 'Anthem Rock crossed with Pop Vocal melodies'. With the help of our fans, we believe we can use our music to make a difference in this world.

We create music together in the hope that our message will reach those who need it most; our art is our arm for reaching our fans. We are proudly a 100% independent act, not signed to any record label and treading new ground by becoming one of the first acts from New Zealand to give away free mp3 downloads of our debut album "White Lies & Black Hearts".
