Let’s give it up for Bravo Delta! Indie Band of the WEEK! We love them, so YOU’LL love them. What happens in Vegas MUST not stay in Vegas! Bravo Delta have shared the stage with some megalithic artists such as Corey Taylor, Adelitas Way, Nothing More, and WAY more…Reviving hard rock with energetic and enthusiastic live shows and socially mindful lyrics, Bravo Delta are most definitely on their way to becoming the mainstay on your airplay. RockRevolt had a quick moment with Brandon Davis to find out a little more about the inner workings of this foursome.
Congratulations for being picked as our Indie Band of the Week! How did everyone in the band first meet?
Thank you! We are honored to be featured. I met Andy about 15 years ago when I was living in Oklahoma. At one time, we were both part of a cover band called Dr. Squealsgood, which was basically a Steel Panther type of thing…spandex, wigs, hair metal, the whole thing. (laughs) We met Brian and Roman in Las Vegas, who had both responded to ads we had out looking for a bassist and a drummer.
What do you feel makes the Bravo Delta sound and style successful?
I think our understanding of song dynamics, hooks, and ability to write material that evokes emotion.
What are your thoughts on the hard-rock scene in Las Vegas, and what makes you stand out from the crowd?
The hard-rock scene in Las Vegas is really solid. This town features so many incredible musicians, award-winning producers, and some of the best venues in the U.S. What makes us stand out is our live show and how we connect with the audience.
You have toured with big names in the past, ranging from The Used, Corey Taylor and Alien Ant Farm. What was your favorite tour to date and do you have any favorite tour memories you would like to share?
Our tour with Nothing More in 2013 was my favorite. They are some great guys, and while there were no crazy moments or stories, we did trade shirts for several shows. We are excited to get back out on the road over the coming months.
You have just released your latest album Unbreakable. What can fans old and new expect to see and hear from the album?
We re-recorded and remixed a song we released back in 2015 called “Virus”, and placed it on this album. I think old fans that were familiar with it will really appreciate the new recording.
As Unbreakable is your debut album, are there any noticeable progressions as a band following your last two outings – Shutdown Sequence and Sunset Wasteland?
Absolutely! We feel the songs are stronger, our chemistry is tighter, and we achieved our “sound” with the songs on this album.
How did you approach the writing and the recording of Unbreakable?
Seeing as how the writing and recording process for this album took three years, we were fortunate to have the time to refine the songs. Nothing was rushed. Usually the process begins with an idea from Andy or I, and we then bring it to the other guys and mold it together.
Your latest single “Unbreakable” is a very positive song. How hard is it to write with such optimism in troubling times in the world today?
It can be difficult. However, I think there is more value in creating intelligent art that inspires, versus provoking anger negativity.
Apart from the single, are there any personal favorite tracks on the album yourself or the other members in the band would recommend?
Definitely! We love “Modus Operandi”, which is strong enough to be the next single. If you were into something a bit more complex, “Lost At Sea” would be your jam.
What can we expect to hear from Bravo Delta in the future?
We always thought it would be fun to pick about five songs from other artists and remake them in our style. So we will be working on that as well as more of our own original material. However, obviously our focus right now is to get Unbreakable out to as many people as possible.
