The Deltics

About Me

Hi There, We're The Deltics and we play a mean 60's show.We've been playing for a number of years, and just keep faithful to our roots.We had a very busy 2008, and have started 2009 in cracking form. So if you're a promoter and want the band to play, give us a shout - we won't bite honest.We have the luxury of being able to tailor our music to the night we are playing, So if you need it dirty, we crank it up and it all goes garage punk, if you require it a little more subdued, then we play more 60's R&B and beat...Simple init.Send us a mail and we'll put you on our mailing list [email protected] have an album out and it's doing some nice business, if you would like a copy. send us a mail. Its £5 so you can't go complaining about that. Oh and its in glorious 60's monstereo....
