Mark Delgado
“Delgado is a bardic, gritty songwriter blending noirish folk songcraft with spoken word elements & a narrative sensibility as indebted to novelists like Denis Johnson & Cormac McCarthy as to any fellow songwriters.” - John Burdick - HV1
Marc Delgado is a singer/songwriter, poet & storyteller from Woodstock, NY. His recent studio album Wildwood Road is filled with cinematic, psychedelic snapshots of his days of addiction & violence, living out of motels up & down California’s San Joaquin Valley. Woven into these scenes are songs of loss & survival, redemption, recovery & love. Recorded in Hurley, NY at Hurley Sound with producer & band mate Justin Tracy, Delgado has thrown his hat into the ring & announced his arrival in The Catskills as an artist to be noticed. Along with Tracy on drums, Delgado’s band, Spanish Ghost, consists of virtuosos Todd Nelson on guitar & James Alanson Kirk on bass. Their performances are a mix of spoken-word, jazz improv, art rock, folk music, guerrilla theatre, lush vocal harmonies & loud rocknroll. When not performing with his band, Delgado plays constantly as a one-man show. Part folkie, poet, raconteur & stand-up comic, Delgado tells stories & shares his experience from dark to light & all the shadows in between. With two live solo records under his belt: Live at Pete’s Candy Store Volumes I & II, Delgado keeps moving forward finding his truest self on the stage. He is currently at work on a new studio album & his book The Black Socks: A Book of Stories & Poems & Other Stuff That May or May Not Have Actually Happened… is due out in Winter 2025.
