In town for tour rehearsal, Matt Vasquez and John Jameson, of Delta Spirit agreed to stop by my house and make me a cup of coffee. Like many of you, I was first introduced to Delta Spirit through The Walking Dead. I was curious to learn more about them the band and what they had been up since taking a break after their last record. From early days of forming the band to taking time for solo endeavors, we cover a lot of ground in this week’s podcast. John and Matt have collected a lot of insight and stories over their years together touring and creating music. I can’t wait to see what they do next.
