Deltona band promotes recent EP, upcoming Saturday show at Deltona Bridal
A member of a Deltona-based band described the group's formation, recent recordings and a local performance scheduled for Saturday night at Deltona Bridal from 7 to 9 p.m.

The speaker, identified in the meeting only as a band member who serves as the group's bass player, said the band formed after the 2019 death of Robert Wilson, lead singer of their prior group The Dead Show Dealers. The musician said he recorded material with Hollis Dorian and later recruited Josh Henry (drums) and Binks Skiba (guitar) to perform songs built from those recordings.

The band released an EP earlier this year that the speaker said has been streaming widely and has been the basis for a touring schedule of about six to eight months. The speaker identified two songs that have drawn strong audience reaction: the EP's title track (referred to variously in the recording as “You Got Like Something” and “You Got My Something”) and a traditional-leaning acoustic country song called “Loretta.” The transcript alternates between the two title variants; the recording did not provide a single, consistent spelling.

The speaker said the group traveled to Nashville this year for the Josie Music Awards. He said the band and material were nominated several times — including EP of the Year and Song of the Year for “Loretta” — and that an earlier song, “Country by Birthright,” won a Josie award for best country song with multiple writers credited. The speaker described attending ceremonies in Nashville as a ‘‘great experience’’ for the band.

The speaker described other tracks in the band's repertoire, including a somber song called “Tombstone,” a reflective piece titled “Rolling Stones” that he said evokes why musicians play, and a country arrangement of the eighties metal song “Blind in Texas.” The speaker identified the original performers of “Blind in Texas” as the metal band W.A.S.P.; the transcript spelled that name differently. He said the cover often surprises audiences and elicits strong live reactions.

The musician repeatedly identified the group as a Florida band: he said members live in and around Deltona, Orlando and Clermont, and that they rehearse and record in Deltona. He invited attendees to the band's Saturday show at Deltona Bridal, encouraged audience interaction after the performance and said the band looks forward to meeting people at the event.

No formal action, vote or city decision related to the performance was discussed in the transcript excerpt provided.
