About Delmark

Delmark Goldfarb is “the best new writer of good-time music,” according to former Lovin’ Spoonful frontman John Sebastian, who has added accompaniment on occasion (see video). On the more topical side, Del’s anti-war “Shoot The Angels Down” was ranked in the Top 100 at Neil Young’s “Songs of The Times” website, among the more than 3,000 posted songs.

His tune “Portable Man” is featured on the Appleseed Records’ “Give Us Your Poor” compilation, along with artists such as Pete Seeger and Keb’ Mo’ and he can be seen in the new jug band documentary, Chasin’ Gus’ Ghost.

Witty, informative and casually profound, this sharp fingerpickin’ hipster ex-Marine “blue-collar scholar” (with a background in busking) delivers a relaxed but rousing performance. A recent music review (Kingston Daily Freeman) cited Del’s all-original solo cd “a must-have for any purist.”
