The much-loved Americana soul band, The Delines, return to Waterford for a highly anticipated performance.
This marks their third visit to the city, following two sold-out shows at Imagine Arts Festival (2019) and Subterranean Sounds (2022).
Hailing from Portland, Oregon, The Delines were born out of cult alt-country band Richmond Fontaine.
The group is led by the acclaimed novelist and songwriter Willy Vlautin, and fronted by the velvet-smooth vocals of Amy Boone, backed by an exceptional band: Sean Oldham (drums), Cory Gray (keys/trumpet), and Freddie Trujillo (bass).
