John Delias

The solo album of Naxatras' lead guitarist is an exercise in trippy urban sounds with a vocal and guitar driven easy-going melodic vibe. In the long documented history of artist's solo works, half the required information in order to understand the project in its entirety lies in the background. John Delias has been channelling his creative energy in Naxatras, the highly successful psychedelic rock band from Greece, as a founding member, lead guitarist and vocalist. Nearly a decade in existence, Naxatras have accomplished a number of breakthroughs in the global heavy rock underground scene, arguably the most important being the consolidation of a unique, personal sound with their 3 full length albums and the build-up of an international solid fan base through constant touring. Between recording and performing in a full professional pace and level, a rather different kind of tunes and echoes found its way in John's psyche and the need to be seen through was inescapable. Since 2017, the songs of 'Intangible Reality' have been taking form, drawing inspiration from the 1960s and 1970s groove music, across genres. Guitar-cut mellow jazz, fusing with funky horns and a variety of feel good upbeat drums, create a pallet of memorable songs with a straight to the point attitude. Focused in meaningful song writing and the smooth delivery it requires, John took vocal lessons, assembled a number of collaborators and presents a collection of songs deeply rooted in the vintage era of soulful jazz, crystal-picking blues and rhythmic bossanova.
