The Delta Wires

Delta Wires bring their big, high-energy harmonica and horns blues sound to the Main Stage at Broadway & Columbus, representing the best of the Oakland/San Francisco Bay Area blues tradition. A seven-piece harmonica-driven band with a sassy brass section, they tip their collective hats to everything from the Mississippi Delta to the south side of Chicago — a sound that earned them induction into the California Blues Hall of Fame in 2012. Few bands on the festival circuit can match their combination of raw blues authenticity and sheer horn-powered spectacle.
