Delta Spirit is a band from San Diego, California, United States, beginning in 2005. This band is most known for their intense live performances, their congregational song-writing, and their driving rhythm.
The worlds of Deer Tick and Delta Spirit have coalesced many times throughout the years, most notably in the Middle Brother folk-rock project that featured each of the band's respective front men along with Taylor Goldsmith of Dawes.
While a few friends, including Jessica Lea Mayfield, did, in fact, help out, Delta Spirit squarely stood on their own merits with lead singer Matthew Vasquez the key reason why.
The tunes themselves always erred on the side of simplicity following straightforward formulas with winding guitar-driven tracks that climaxed into solos and catchy repetitive choruses.
They exude that punk-hipster vibe both in their style of dress and in their sound, and it’s clear when they’re in the cooler-than-thou borough that Brooklynite fans feel a certain ownership over them.
The five piece Delta Spirit took the stage before seven to about a quarter full Playfield, focusing the majority of their opening set on their most recent self-titled release.
