Delta
88 w/ Barzin
Delta
88 has quickly developed a reputation throughout the Midwest for
their fresh approach to Americana. They've performed in some of the
finest venues including The Ark (Ann Arbor), Southgate House
(Newport, Kentucky), and Schubas (Chicago). Their exceptional
musicianship shines in the intimate setting of Trinity House.
Their
music falls continually away from convention and genre into the
field of experimental songwriting with comparisons made to Richard
Buckner, Tom Waits, Nick Drake, Damien Jurado, and Will Oldham among
others.
They've
recorded a demo with artist/producer Joe Henry.
Slow
and melancholic, introspective and confessional: These words in some
ways describe the sound of Barzin. A project that began sometime in
1995, Barzin was a solo endeavor at its inception. But somewhere
along the way it shed its solitary skin allowing a wide array of
characters into it's sound. the sound of the music has continued to
remain true to the esthetics of quietness and minimalism. It still
concerns itself with exploring the quiet side of pop. In 2003, the
album that was self released by Barzin the previous year was picked
up and re-released by Ocean Music and Where Are My Records.
His second full-length album was released in 2006.

“An
excellent, soulfully refined trio, who paint a different picture
of roots music by mining the soul of classic folk and country,”
