DELTA WIRES

"Hot Wired Rhythm & Blues"

About Me

DELTA WIRES is an Oakland, California based rhythm and blues band which was founded by lead vocalist and harmonica player Ernie Pinata as a college project. The Delta Wires name was derived from the image of a band with modern, "electric" instrumentation, playing a style of music born in the Mississippi "Delta". What began as an anthology of blues music from the Mississippi Delta to the South Side of Chicago, inevitably evolved into a band, which has become known for its versatility and crisp, tight, exciting sound.
