(UMe) Delta Spirit will share songs from their much-anticipated debut Ode to Sunshine (August 26, Rounder Records) with music fans across the nation this fall with Dr. Dog. After recently finishing a highly successful tour with Matt Costa and performing on KCRW's acclaimed "Morning Becomes Eclectic" just last month, this week Delta Spirit were featured on NPR's "All Songs Considered" and will kick summer into swing with a handful of headlining dates.
"Better than any young band in recent memory, San Diego's Delta Spirit fuses the soulfulness and integrity we associate with bygone eras in American popular music with youthful spirit and a DIY sensibility
and that makes Ode to Sunshine more than a promising debut. It feels important, because it feels like it won't be forgotten in 15 minutes, or maybe even 15 years." The Boston Globe
