Luxury is a rock band from Toccoa, Georgia that began playing together as The Shroud at Toccoa Falls College in the early 1990s. They changed their name just before signing with Tooth & Nail Records and releasing their debut album, ''Amazing And Thankyou'' {Link without Title} , which was one of the few non-hardcore releases on the label at the time. Luxury toured extensively in the months following ''Amazing And Thankyou'''s release, until late 1995, when a bad highway collision between touring engagements resulted in most members of the band being hospitalized, and leaving the lead singer in critical condition and in need of a blood transfusion. Consequently, they took a year-long hiatus, but were back on tour as soon as possible to support their second album, ''The Latest & The Greatest'', though with fewer dates than initially anticipated. After growing more and more unhappy with the continually waning resources and promotion provided them by Tooth & Nail Records , they opted (in 1997) not to renew their contract with the label, and instead released their third album, self-titled ''Luxury'', in 1999 on Bulletproof Records , a smaller and more artist-friendly label. Soon after, Luxury broke up, and the band members went their separate ways. Jamey Bozeman started a new band called Canary , which soon became They Sang As They Slew , while Lee Bozeman recorded a solo project, ''Love & Affection'', under the moniker All Things Bright And Beautiful . 2005 found the band regrouping in Toccoa to make a new record, ending a six-year hiatus and resulting in their fourth effort as Luxury, titled ''Health And Sport'', which was released on Northern Records . The new recording featured all the original members of the band: Lee and Jamey Bozeman, Glenn Black, Chris Foley, and Matt Hinton (described by Jamey in a 1999 interview as the band's "fifth leg").
