Real music by real people, played live and recorded live. This best embodies the philosophy of established Boston band Delta Generators and their approach for their latest record ON & ON. In an industry where technology has become the standard and intelligence has become artificial, Delta Generators are keeping it real and will continue to do so going forward. All the songs on their latest record “On and On” were written, arranged and rehearsed over a period of eight days and then recorded in two days at Power Station N.E. in Waterford, CT by Evan Bakke, best known for his work with Warren Haynes and Prince. The idea was to get together, play and when something feels right, work it! No preconceived ideas as to what it should be. A journey of liberation, inspiration and perspiration. Yeah, Blues is the vehicle, but their lifelong love of rock music is the fuel that powers it. Brothers Charlie and Rick O’Neal, on guitar and bass respectively, have been playing together since their teenage years. Most notably as members of Benjamin Orr’s band, former singer and bass player with The Cars. Sometimes they would go off and do other projects, Charlie toured with UK band Must and Rick played in Boston guitar hero Johnny A’s band, but inevitably they would play together again and again. Charlie had been playing in rock bands throughout his early years, but he was always a huge fan of Blues guitar. He spent years honing his abilities by playing along with records. When the opportunity presented itself for a Blues driven side project, he was all in. That moment altered his future, placing him in the position to celebrate his passion for personal heroes like Elmore James, Freddie King and Albert Collins.
The band has forged a solid place in the Boston Blues scene. They went on to record four records before Craig decided to leave the band in 2016. Enter Brian Templeton, a fixture in the local scene since 1991. His band The Radio Kings had already recorded for two labels, and he had toured all across the U.S. and Europe with them and as a solo artist. A consummate showman and lover of the spirit, Brian was rooted in the rock music of his youth and was already a seasoned Blues Man. It was a perfect fit and the rest as they say is history.
