Delaney Davidson - Anniversary Tour

R18

With multiple album Anniversaries this year, Delaney Davidson takes to the road in July to celebrate his extensive and star studded catalogue with special band The Anniversaries.

15 years ago, Delaney Davidson joined Reverend Beat Man - cult figure, gospel trash preacher, and founder of the hugely influential Swiss record label VOODOO RHYTHM RECORDS, to release “Self Decapitation” and a year later “Bad Luck Man”.

Self Decapitation had such hits as Little Heart (Silver Scroll Finalist 2011) and barnstormer Dirty Dozen while Bad Luck Man had You’re a Loser (country music song of the year 2012), aswell as I’m So Depressed, and evergreen Time Has Gone. These albums cemented him into the Voodoo Rhythm Family and saw him become a distinct cult figure of the European Touring circuit.

Generally dealing with the darker side of things, Delaney Davidson has been described as “being the reigning king of capturing the essence of “Noir” in Country and Folk Music, pushing at the framework and preconceptions of roots music with his brand of modern gothic Americana.” (Post to Wire).

Having spent the last 20 years as travelling “troubadour" around the globe, sometimes solo, sometimes with accomplices, but always with his Ghost Orchestra, Delaney Davidson has found new focus embracing a love of Aotearoa.

Through his collaborative work with Troy Kingi “ Black Sea, Golden Ladder”, his visual art work with Tame Iti, and his most current album “Out Of My Head” produced by Merk, he has featured such varied talents as Hayley Westenra and Reb Fountain and has toured with Chamber Music New Zealand - all the while continuing to reinvent concepts and challenge expectations, and gaining respect and admiration from audiences.

"Incontestably one of Aotearoa’s most influential and lauded contemporary songwriters” Under The Radar

Delaney Davidson now takes his band of Anniversaries on the local roads around Aotearoa, don’t miss a night of wry sense of humour, some theatre of unease, and a rocking collection of bangers from his extensive back catalogue as he celebrates the music that got him where he is today.
