+----------------------------------[Notes]-----------------------------------+
| |
| Coming across like a cross between Beck's casual mastery of various |
| musical idioms (minus the surrealistic sarcasm) and Jon Spencer Blues |
| Explosion with a much stronger take on the music's history, Rocco Deluca |
| plays a decidedly modern take on traditional blues-rock. Born in |
| Southern California in 1976, Deluca claims to have largely grown up on |
| the R&B touring circuit, the son of a single father who was one of Bo |
| Diddley's backing guitarists. Exposed to the blues both on the tour bus |
| and in family living room jam sessions, Deluca picked up the guitar at a |
| young age, and eventually settled on the Dobro (a resonating metal-top |
| guitar that was a key part of Delta blues in the age before |
| amplification) as his primary instrument. After several years continuing |
| the vagabond lifestyle of his childhood, Deluca settled back in Los |
| Angeles and started a weekly residency at the Gypsy Lounge, a well-known |
| blues and country bar in Orange County. While opening for bluesmen like |
| Taj Mahal, Deluca caught the attention of an A&R representative for |
| Ironworks Records, a new independent label started by '80s pop singer |
| Jude Cole and actor Kiefer Sutherland, and in 2004 became the label's |
| first signing. During sessions for Deluca's first album, produced by |
| Cole, the pair put together a full-time backing band for Deluca's vocals |
| and Dobro, consisting of bassist Dave Beste, percussionist Gary |
| Velasquez, and drummer Ryan Carman. That debut album, I Trust You to |
| Kill Me, was released in March 2006, coinciding with a DVD documentary |
| by the same title that featured Sutherland shepherding Rocco Deluca & |
| the Burden on their first international press tour. |
