DUE TO ILLNESS, THIS SHOW HAS BEEN CANCELLED
THE COX CAPITOL THEATRE presents…
THE DELTA SAINTS
With opening act The Floorwalkers
This music is a fusion of traditional southern soul & funk, layered with a furious harmonica that ties the group together & threatens to unseat it all at once. It has the familiar comfort of porch music but plugged in and turned up; The Delta Saints are driving listeners from their porches right to the edge of their seats. The Delta Saints is fueled by talent and a passion to relate to one another. With a language-like quality, you can hear the conversation between five men as they speak to one another through their instruments and to us as well…about love and loss & the consequence.
“…with a whip-smart, harp-and-dobro driven take on the blue, the Delta Saints are throwing down a raucious and righteous sound that more than lives up to the adopted name. With two artfully packaged, self-released EPs and a killer live DVD already on the market, the Delta Saints have spent the last few years cultivating a serious buzz and a rabid fan base around the Music City and throughout the southeast.”

Real live blues music is an endangered species these days, and original blues songs are even rarer, so Nashville had better hold onto a band like The Delta Saints while they can, because they may not be playing 12th & Porter forever if they keep pumping out rockin’ music and wowing crowds the way they did Friday night.
