DELTA WIRES Edited Medley from RDM2 Studios, Livermore CA


"Song after song the Delta Wires were dynamic, tight and energetic! What more could you want from your headliner. They had the crowd in the Delta Wires spell from the first note until the end of the show. Everyone that was in attendance is still talking about the band. Thanks to Ernie and crew for putting on a great show. They made a hot summer evening in the valley even hotter!"
Jim Castleman, Producer, Hanford Blues and Roots Festival (Sept 2012)

"Oh, boy, it doesn’t get much better than this. Never heard of the Delta Wires? Well, they’re one of America’s finest Blues institutions, and they’ve worked out of Oakland for over 30 years. This is an industrial-strength, 7 piece blues band with a take-no-prisoners brass section and they play the blues in that special way a would-be musician could only dream of.  This is a bunch of big, grown up lads, fronted by the powerful vocals and agile harp playing of Fine Arts graduate Ernie Pinata. Richard Healy’s guitar playing will set your speakers on fire … the live excitement cuts in like a hot knife through butter. You want great, live, driving American music? This is it, no mistake!"
-BLUES MATTERS Magazine, Bridgend, United Kingdom

"You guys are incredible!  What a tight band!    What energy!    I want to know what brand of vitamins you take.   Thanks so much for a wonderful day, the joy of your company, and the outstanding music.   And thanks so much for helping the kids, the next generation, at Berkeley High.   You were absolutely smokin'!"
-Kathleen Lawton, Crazy 'Bout the Blues
, KCSM 91.1 FM, San Mateo CA, MC for Jazz on 4th Street Festival, Berkeley CA (May 2011)
