Take two brilliant entertainers,
add an amazing range of instruments
and a stunning array of songs and
you have the DELTA LADIES.

The Delta Ladies

Delta Ladies

Imagine the high lonesome sound of a mountain fiddle and bluegrass guitar, the knife edge of Delta slide guitar, the fluid jazz violin of Stephan Grapelli, the songs of Hendrix & Dylan with the addition of Gypsy violin and flamenco tinged guitar, using guitars, fiddles, mandolin and the unique chromatic dulcimer…Imagine music that contains all of these magical elements, great songs like Hey Joe, but with Gypsy violin, Night and Day with dark passion…songs about the railway, about the devil and about life…Imagine all of this, then the added spice of startling original tunes..

From Delta blues to Jazz,
From Gershwin to grunge,
From Vaudeville to Voodoo child..
