About Me


"....Audiolove from Boston..."
Pumping out pop-rock that echoes the modern sounds of My Morning Jacket, the fearless songwriting of the Beatles, and the funk grooves of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Delhill performs intimate, exciting rock shows in clubs and colleges all over the northeast. The band has its origins as old friends and world travelers making music by beachside campfires. With their recent success headlining the Middle East Rock club and their residency at the Paradise Lounge in Boston, Delhill continues on as four friends making one sound.
-- “In an era where marketable rock music seems to be divided into pop-punk or emo, Delhill demonstrates its prowess in intricate harmony and a never-quit rhythm section. Delhill's music manages to be sensitive, endearing, and aurally fierce. If Delhill has no future in this industry, then this industry has no future."
CE Skidmore - The Post-Star, Glens Falls NY
"Bouncing Souls is definitly one of those insert CD, push play, and listen to kind of albums."
