Delta Nove jam at SST Studios w/ special guests Marc Ford
Delta Nove (delta novay) Formed in a Long Beach, California garage with funk at the core, Delta Nove has grown incredibly since those early days and their first independent EP release in 1998. After hundreds of shows in California and on the road, the band has developed its world funk sound to crowds around the country. When using the term “world funk” we’re talking deep and heavy funk grooves, a thunderous array of percussion, catchy songs, and a celebration of life like you’re at Brazilian Carnaval and New Orleans Mardi Gras all at the same time.
Delta Nove finds inspiration from American funk, and then finds the funk other cultures have to offer and mixes it all up, drawing heavily on Brazilian music, west African funk, calypso, rock and reggae.
With a hard working do-it-yourself work ethic, the band has garnered accolades like “Best Live Act” for 2 years in a row at the Orange County Music Awards, one of the “Top Ten Bands to See” for 2005 by Jambase, recorded their albums independently at their Long Beach-based studio the Compound, done countless national tours, and has performed with such artists as Michael Franti and Spearhead, Poncho Sanchez, Burning Spear, Ozomatli, King Sunny Ade, Kid Creole and the Coconuts, String Cheese Incident, and many more.
Beyond simply creating music, Delta Nove has made it a priority to perform at social benefits, community events, universities, and public schools, in order to give back to the community and raise social awareness through their music. They have also maintained an intense touring schedule, making them one of the hardest working bands in the independent music scene and a unique addition to the musical soundscape of Southern California and beyond. As the band moves into the future, they continue in their pursuit of positive, uplifting music, their efforts of giving back to the people, and having a funky good time. Come see for yourself.

I fear I'm too tripped out to roar or even meow just now. You're one lighthearted silly cat and I need that in my life. What can I say, you make me purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Thanks so much for the Add–and your friendship. We enjoyed your music very much. Thanks for sharing it with all of us. It's a pleasure having you among our friends!
We've just added two new blogs about Umano, plus four more new compositions, making ten on our space. We hope you and your friends visit us and enjoy our music, too.
We wake up every morning and play the music of the new MySpace friends who have arrived at our site during the night. It occurred to us that these friends (you are among them) are almost universally positive, whether they be novices or legends, and without regard to their station in life or the country they occupy.
Although it's not an original thought, it also occurred to us that we couldn’t hold a verbal conversation with most of these friends, but we have bridged that gap by expressing our art honestly with each other.
We all have been filling the world with our music and art, in the hope that our messages of love and human understanding will have an impact on the world at large.
What a gift and what an opportunity we have received from this technology!
