Description
Jessica Hernandez & The Deltas have arrived at last with their long awaited Instant Records debut, Secret Evil. The album sees the Detroit-based band serving up a brilliantly polyglot sonic stew – equal parts rockabilly and surf pop, cabaret jazz and funky reggae, Latin psych and Gypsy punk – all cooked up on the hot Motor City pavement and seasoned by that distinctly Detroit combination of blasted R&B, showband theatrics, and limitless rock ‘n’ soul energy. Songs like Caught Up and the syncopated No Place Left To Hide showcase Hernandez’s unstoppable vocals and breath of musical ambition, braiding contemporary pop thrills with an original and unmistakable creative persona all her own. Dizzying in its range and ambition, Secret Evil is fresh, focused, and surprising, a remarkable debut album from an indescribably compelling new band.
