Biography

The veterans from The Deltas emerged on London’s rockabilly scene in 1980. The original triple attack consisting of Little John’s double bass, “Captain Pat Marvel” Panioty’s guitar and Steve Bongo’s drums has been expanded with the bands former producer, Boz Borer, on saxophone, and John “The Bomb” Buck on drums — freeing up Steve Bongo to concentrate fully on his vocal work. Since the beginning the band has been on a mission to stretch the boundaries of the rockabilly genre.

But unlike the bulk of bands stealing from the popular musical styles of the day, The Deltas found inspiration in the blues, with inspirations like Lightnin’ Hopkins and Sonny Boy Williamson giving their wild and frantic rockabilly a uniquely different twist. Their diverse musical inspirations allows the band to span from dynamic jazzy compositions to all out psychotic Rockabilly madness at its best over the course of a single set. Don’t show up thinking you know what you’ll get from The Deltas, they will pull the unexpected out of their hat when you least expect it and blow you away!
