Raw and bluesy. That's the sound of Black River Delta. Three friends from the northern parts of Sweden packed their guitars and moved down to the south. With inspiration from early blues like Robert Johnson, the raw style of R.L. Burnside and the modern sound of Gary Clark Jr, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and The Dead Weather, they locked themselves into a studio. Knowing about the strength of their basic recipe, Erik Jacobs, Erik Nilsson and Pontus Ohlsson have maintained and refined the key ingredients. Nilssons driving, furious drumming, Ohlssons fiery lead guitar riffs and Jacobs hearty vocals hit your head and your heart at the same time as the opener and first single „Gun For You“ instantly proves. In addition though, „VOL. II“ is frequently enriched with slide guitars and the blues harp or a Fender Rhodes. Mainly though our senses are stimulated by vocals, drums and two guitars like in the wonderfully creaking and distorted „Cigarettes“. The combination of these various components gives „VOL. II“ it’s unique spicy flavour, that exictes your tongue, heats up your body and will always stay in your memory. 13 songs have made it on Black River Deltas impressive second album "VOL. II", which will be released on March 9th, 2018.
