Mesmerising live shows throughout the U.K would see Delta Mainline receive excellent reviews and become one of the most talked about in the psychedelic/experimental scene. This has led to BBC Radio One airplay and invitations for the band to open for Wilco, Glasvegas, Detroit Social Club, Exit Calm and Athlete; as well as festival appearances around Britain.
This distinctive sound has caught the attention of DJ Gill Mills as the band were recently selected to feature on Mills’ Best of MySpace show, which recognises the best talent from around the planet on Myspace.com
In 2009 the band were happy to confirm their track ‘Hope/Grace’ would feature on the psychedelic compilation CD ‘Strung Out Vol. One’ through The Third Wave Collective; showcasing “the cream of the guitar-based psychedelia-influenced crop” (Drowned in Sound). Other artists included The Brian Jonestown Massacre, Dead Meadow and Spectrum.
The band released their new E.P ‘In a World Full of Madness, the Simple Joy of Melody Can Pull You Through’, on Saturday 6th November 2010 in front of a 300-strong crowd at The Bongo Club, Edinburgh.
Delta Mainline are currently recording their 2011 debut album.
