DECEMBER HEADLINE TOUR ANNOUNCED
“…these Nashville-bred boys offer an eclectic sound that is not only rocking, but also refreshing. As big bass meets deep blues, gritty lyrics and groovy electronics, The Delta Saints will simply show you a helluva good time.”
– Maxim Magazine
NEW YORK, NY (November 2, 2015) – Nashville band, The Delta Saints, who recently released their album, Bones on August 7, 2015 have been touring the world in support of their debut album with Loud & Proud Records. Bones was produced, engineered and mixed by Third Man Records alum, Eddie Spear who has assisted on projects with Jack White, Arctic Monkeys and Neil Young to name a few.
The band has been garnering praise in the press (see below) for a sound that is all their own but with hints of My Morning Jacket, The Black Keys and The White Stripes thrown in for good measure. Recently, Chrissie Hynde was a guest on Bravo’s “Watch What Happen Live” and told a caller that she saw The Delta Saints play Akron, OH, that they are a “great band” and suggested that people buy Bones – watch HERE. And today, Daytrotter released their live session with the band. Listen to it HERE.
The Delta Saints are a global touring band having spent the last eight years playing festivals and sold out headline shows in the U.S. and across Europe averaging about 200 shows per year, organically growing their audience fan by fan, city by city, country by country. They are currently on tour playing several dates in Europe but will be back in the States to play a headline tour beginning December 3, 2015 in Lawrence, KS and will finish up in Nashville to play a special New Year’s Eve show at Marathon Music Works (all dates listed below). If you can’t make it out to a show this run, watch a special Audiotree Live session of the band performing songs off Bones HERE.
What The Press Has Been Saying…
“…a killer rock band…If you dig ethereal rock in the vein of My Morning Jacket or gritty roots like The White Stripes, check these guys out.” – Blue Ridge Outdoors
“The Delta Saints have developed a signature sound of roots-blues efforts and huge rhythms…Bones is ten tracks of fast-paced, genre-bending experimentation…roots-y vocals, gritty lyrics, and expansive, rollicking instrumentation.” – Elmore Magazine
“…Delta Saints build on the familiar aesthetics of blues, folk, and country to create a lush, abundant sound all their own…walking the line between shit-kicking roots rock and electronic exploration…Bones shows a band comfortable in its own shoes and confident in its ability to create innovative, roots-inspired rock ‘n’ roll.” – popMATTERS (8/10 star album review)
“…chock full of gritty blues riffs, bold choruses and sweet slide guitar work.” – Nashville Scene
“Bones is a full-throttle rock ’n’ roll affair, with crashing drums, arena-sized vocals, and a big, layered sound full of texture and nuance. Imagine My Morning Jacket joining forces with Dead Weather—or, in the tamer moments, the Black Keys—and you’re on the right track.” – Good Times
“Hot damn is the latest from The Delta Saints one groovy rock record! The Nashville five-piece is back with a soulful fury on Bones, which features a cavalcade of sexy stompers, howling blues and all the gritty rock you can handle…Lead singer Ben Ringel carries the songs with his charisma, whether he’s rasping out low notes or sending out a call to the heavens…you will be too tightly in the grip of this band’s musical sway to break free, not that you’ll want to. Bones is a sweaty good time.” – Chico News & Review
“…soulful slow-burner, “Butte La Rose,” which sounds like the Black Crowes with an arid Texas Blues vibe. Keyboards reverberate across a spare, echoing blues riff that could serve as the backdrop for a Western gunfight, before spinning into something more like Pink Floyd.” – Colorado Springs Independent
“… one hell of a rock ‘n’ roll album. Bones is filled to the brim with bluesy stompers, soulful howls and scratchy whispers, on this dynamic album that takes on soul, Americana, gospel and R&B…there’s no resisting the magnetic pull of this record. Singer Ben Ringel is a spellbinding force of nature…” – C-Ville
“…the Dixie lads fuse electronic, alternative and experimental sounds into a unique pastiche of groove music.” – Washington Times
