Goin' Down South
Delta Moon
Deep Rush
Someone finally did it.
They created a band with two slide guitarists. But unlike double-lead-guitar groups such as the Allmans, Skynyrd or the Outlaws, Delta Moon doesn’t employ the note-for-note unison technique. The sliders play their notes in between each other’s, creating a strange polyrhythm with a unique effect on the central nervous system. Occasionally, they’ll cross paths, and that’s when the fun begins.
But this Atlanta outfit is about more than a lap-style slide guitarist and a bottleneck guitarist. It’s also about voices, because there are two singers: the lap-style slider and a power female vocalist. Sometimes they’ll share lead vocals, others they’ll take a solo turn on a song.
Add to this a rhythm section that knows how to choogle, and you’ve got a blues-boogie prescription with unlimited refills.
Kudos to the gang also for their well-chosen covers: J.B. Lenoir’s “I Want to Go”; David Bowie and Iggy Pop’s “Nightclubbing”; and R.L. Burnside’s title track.
