Delgirl
About the Artist
For the past seven years, a trio of Dunedin women have practiced a seductive sonic art.
Augmenting honey-dipped harmonies with acoustic guitars, ukulele, trumpet and drums, they've conjured many a mood-altering spell with a repertoire of original compositions that reflect a shared talent for finding the remarkable in the everyday, the trio appear to revel in the pleasure of performance.
- Jeff Harford, Otago Daily Times 3/11/07
Delgirl are a three piece acoustic group who do as much avoiding of definition as they can. If pushed they'll admit to playing skiffily, folky, country, jazzy, bluesy roots music with a Pacific edge. The result is a beautiful big harmony sound built around the double bass, guitar, ukuleles, banjo & snare/percussion.
These three Dunedin based women musicians and songwriters have been making music together since 2000. In November 2007 they released their debut album: "two, maybe three, days ride."
