Delirious?

Delirious? have always talked about being on a journey, always embracing change and looking out for direction. It all goes right back to the start. In 1992 producer/engineer Martin Smith (vocals and guitars) teamed up with studio owner Tim Jupp (keyboards) and graphic designer Stew Smith (drums) to provide the music for a local event aimed at joining the dots between church and young people. The blend of Smith’s open hearted lyrics with the rest of the band’s home grown delivery made immediate sense to those who saw it first hand. Things were rough yet soaked in the sweat of honest enthusiasm, and the band quickly made a name for themselves as the most exciting band on the UK Christian scene.

Within four years the band were full time – joined by Stu G on guitars and Jon Thatcher on bass – and within five they were releasing singles and albums into the UK charts. Their early Cutting Edge recordings had shaped the way people thought of worship music; the tracks released from 1997’s King Of Fools edited the way in which the mainstream music industry thought about Christian bands. For some they were controversial, but for all, their success was undeniable: two top twenty singles and a number 13 placing for the album. The roughed-up guitars and euphoric melodies showed the way forward, with Radio 1 dubbing them “pop’s best kept secret.”

Delirious? have done many things over the years, seen plenty of spotlights and looked out over vast crowds. Now, more than ever, things are personal. A little more broken, a little more fragile, a little more determined to join in the saints as they march on their knees towards healing, wholeness and the feet of the Miracle Maker. Now is the time all right. Delirious? will release their new album 'Kingdom of Comfort' on April 1, 2008.

Delirious? will lead your students in a time of worship at Daytona Beach on July 9th.
