Deltaphonic Plays That Funky Music

1117

Deltaphonic is the duo of frontman/songwriter Andrew T. Weekes and drummer Ciaran Brennan, a couple of talented guys who, in 2014, met on New Orleans’ Frenchmen Street and started a band. They have since released two full length albums, their weaving of blues, rock, funk and roots appealing to a wide audience. The live shows are described as maniacal yet cohesive, but make no mistake, the sound and energy of these two alone needs no helper outers. New Orleans music critic Robert Fontenot says of Deltaphonic “…NOLA finally has an answer for the White Stripes and the Black Keys-dark Americana with history’s dust shaken off.” It promises to be high-energy, get out and dance kinda night when they perform at Chelsea’s on Friday at 9:30. Weekes and Brennan call their unique sound “Hill Country Disco” and how great is that?
