Delta Derek is an obscure psychedelic blues guitarist and failed professor of funk. He lives on a boat somewhere in England.
In 2005, Delta Delboy joined one of the UK's top cheesey jive-blues combos, The Cadillac Kings. Two years later he quit, after one too many Palm Royales and a terminal row in the band van in Belgium.
Delta Derek continues to explore the bit where the river of the mind meets the sea of absurdity. Check the music page for evidence of a miss-spent middle age. Derek also occasionally teaches electric blues guitar, and sometimes works in disguise as DJ Delicious.
Here's what auto-translated Dutch website Rootsville had to say about Delta Derek's performance with the Cadillac Kings in Brussels, summer 2007... "A stunning first performance of the lead guitarist which in the first instance and with his look of a pointillistische painter end of the nineteenth century previously seemed attracted to the band a little more colour. Should that be the case, then all they are equal to a fantastic guitarist subdued. Not once has he a plectrum pulled his fingers and all have a function."
