A long time ago, at the dawn of the Atomic Age, a succession of no-good punks and ill-mannered teenagers took the best of American roots music hard-partying honky tonk country, searing gutbucket blues and lonesome hillbilly twang and distilled it into a potent moonshine known as rockabilly. This combustible formula, passed down through the generations, forms the heart of the revved-up stylings of Delilah DeWylde.

The Delilah DeWylde band hails from Grand Rapids, Michigan and got their start in 2004. Just like rockabilly originators Elvis, Johnny Cash, Bill Haley and Carl Perkins, this Michigan band cut their teeth on steel-guitar driven country in the style popularized by Hank Williams, Ernest Tubb and Webb Pierce. But the draw of the big beat was irresistible, and over time the bands approach has become sharper and tighter. Not self-consciously retro, Delilah remains committed to hand-crafted American music that stands at the crossroads of creativity and craftsmanship, liberally drawing from American rockabilly music. A few band favorites are Elvis/Scotty/Bill, Buddy Holly, Janis Martin, Johnny Burnette, Carl Perkins, Wanda Jackson, and Gene Vincent.

The Soul Doctors are on a mission to offer healing through music. They recommend gathering together and enjoying a good dose of conscious raising eclectic music to combat the negativity in our current social & political climate. They offer thoughtfully composed original tunes as well as good old fashioned cover songs. Original Americana with elements of Folk, Country, Blues, Jazz, Soul, rock, pop...they're still exploring the options in which to express themselves. Side effects may include increased joy, love and compassion.
