Delilah

Delilah is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of Portishead, Ella Fitzgerald, Nine Inch Nails, Chaka Khan and Roy Ayers. Those roots explain a lot about how Delilah arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Laura Mvula, Emeli Sandé, Rebecca Ferguson, Rosie Lowe and Jamie Woon, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Chase & Status, Plan B, Wretch 32, Joe Goddard and Hot Chip, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 37 connections around Delilah, reaching back through Portishead and forward to Chase & Status. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.
