Delta Deep - Press Quote
"DELTA DEEP is a pure blend of true blues and powerful soul music revisited. Iconic rock band Def Leppard's lead guitarist Phil Collen and Queen of the Blues songstress Debbi Blackwell-Cook have devoted a portion of their musical prowess to preserving the blues in it's rawest form. With a blend of rhythm, rock, blues, and soul the two have managed to create a harmonic symphony of tasty musical treats for the most die hard of blues fans and then some.
Accompanied by acclaimed drummer and percussionist Forrest Robinson (India Arie, The Crusaders, Joe Sample) this group is sure to go down in the delta and in history as they celebrate their blues heroes and embody the spirit that made those heroes an invaluable part of American music history."
