Delakota were an English alternative dance band from the late 1990s. The band mixed elements of Madchester, retro-rock, and modern dance music〔http://www.allmusic.com/artist/delakota-mn0001342020〕 to produce a sound which was often compared to Primal Scream. The band were formed by ex members of the Senseless Things, Cass Browne and Morgan Nicholls with Des Murphy (ex-Wasteland, Los Bastardos and Genius Freak) in 1997. The band's first product was a white label demo single, "C'mon Cincinnati". A remix for David Holmes and their next single "The Rock" bought them to the attention of the British music press. The band were also noted for an unusual gig in a cave and for an appearance on BBC Two's ''Newsnight''. The band played some support slots including a tour with Embrace, and a place on the ''NME'' new bands tour in 1998. Their debut album, ''One Love'', was released in 1998 to generally positive reviews. After the release of the album the band went quiet and have not been heard from since, save for one further single, "Got It Like That". It is presumed that the band has split up. As of 2004 Nicholls was playing keyboards in The Streets and Browne was playing drums for Gorillaz. In 2008, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin claimed that Delakota's "The Rock" gave them inspiration for "Strawberry Swing".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Chris Martin Calls Lawsuits Against Coldplay "Inspiring" )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Chris: "LRLRL has to be free because there's so many backing singers" )〕 ==Personnel== * Cass Browne * Morgan Nicholls * Des Murphy * Brian Pearce 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Delakota」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
