From what I remember of their records, the Delta Spirit are a folky Americana troupe. Well, lick my skillet, these guys smoke live. Scrawny, resembling skateboarding rednecks, the Long Beach quintet kicked up dust with no-bullshit, almost punky, rock & roll that brought to mind Band of Horses and Lucero. Call it a syndrome of this breed of epic bar rock: In person, the albums seem almost moot. And the albums are impressive.
