"No one else in the entire musical world has the ability to take in information the spin it into yarns and sound like Delphi.
I've heard people call her "dark"...
If you had to take the darkness of this world into the pit of your soul then regurgitate it back out into something beautfiul you'd probobly be seen as a little twisted too.
GET IT STRAIGHT!
You want your soul and brain pummled at the same time ripped out then shoved back in and then BEG FOR MORE??
Delphi is it!"
--Josh Reeves, www.oraclebroadcasting.net
Donations for upcoming projects GREATLY APPRECIATED! Love and light! ;)

Yes. I think it is that powerful. Keep up the amazing work. Delphi has a gift."
-Opalina Salas, Poet
"Delphi is the bastard daughter of Tori Amos and Lee Harvey Oswald, stealing homework from Buffy Summers, and spending off weekends with her 'uncle' Art Bell. Plus she's hot, if yeh like girls that can totally kick yer ass. Hail Eris, and swallow."
-Ira Wile, of the band Starhead

Some LIVE stuff at the last Art Love Magic show I played in the States: (Second performer after the beautiful miss Jamie Reeves, and followed by the amazing Deborah Driscoll)
"May you live in interesting times," goes the famous curse/blessing, depending on how you look at it. If you haven't figured out that we are indeed living in an age where the extremes of human depravity are combined with the extremes of beauty, truth, and enlightenment, then sold for the highest dollar on your hand-held tv-camer-phone-computer-music-player-bathtub, then Delphi might not be for you. If you have, however, always suspected that something is going on, just below the surface of things, and that that something is about to blow the lid off the illusions we're told to buy; if you are a dreamer, a wisher, a magic-bean buyer, if you like Shell Silverstein and Johnny Cash and the great Beats of old: Ginsberg, Jesus, and Jack Keroauc; if you are a revolutionary, a Discordian, a Freak Folk Hippie of the Zeitgeist; if you're a lover and a leader and an artist as every human who wakes up to the gloriousness of living in these interesting times is, then you might like Delphi. She will like you, regardless.
Nice to meet you, too Delphi. I LOVE your music and will use something as a bumper on my show if that's ok? You have such a beautiful voice... I can really appreciate that 'cause I sing, too~
