The Delta Riggs are back in town for Episode Three.

Ok, so now y’all oughta have wrapped your eyes and ears around the Live At 5ive series we’ve been hosting with Boost Mobile. First off we had Allday spitting bars, then we had Cub Sport cut right into our souls, and next up we have a tasty bit of blues-flavoured indie-rock for you, in the form of intergalactic party-starters The Delta Riggs.

Armed with a couple of originals fro their latest full length, Modern Pressure and a special cover, you’ll be able to catch singer Elliot Hammond and bassist Michael Tramonte doing their thing this Thursday at 5pm on Boost Mobile’s IGTV. Head here to join the Facebook event to get your reminder and check out our interview with Monte for all the latest DR iso-goss:

Can you sum up your life in iso so far in three words?

Pretty, Pretty, Good.

What new skills have you picked up in isolation? Have you learnt anything about yourselves?

I’ve been cooking heaps of shit which has been fun. I also produced and wrote an Instagram TV show for Karl Stefanovic that ran for four episodes. Never done that before and it was loads of fun. I’ve also learned that I can be more annoying than I first thought possible.

What have you been bingeing on? TV or otherwise?

Fuck I’ve been slamming shit. I did a deep dive into The Sopranos as I’d never seen It. The new Curb Your Enthusiasm is outrageously good. Currently, this Money Heist show is fucking amazing. Highly recommend.

What have you been doing to stay connected with friends, fans and fam whilst in isolation?

I’ve been keeping super busy, otherwise I would go mad, need to find the balance between getting grilled and slamming seasons of TV and also being productive. We’ve been writing and recording a bunch of stuff between Melbourne and Sydney for a new EP. It’s been a bit of a different approach but its gonna be rad. It’s important to balance the silly times out with actually being productive in this time for sure

If The Delta Riggs were to endorse any iso-related product what would it be? 

Legalised weed edibles

Have the last few weeks inspired any new music?

Yeah as I said, rather than staying idle we are working on a bunch of songs between states. Elliott and I live in Sydney and still catch up every few days to go over songs. It’s been interesting but feeling more connected in a way I guess, senses are heightened when you’re in isolation

What’s the first thing you’re gonna do when the lockdown ends?

Sit on a rooftop and drink a margarita, go see some live music and hug my friends.

What can we expect from your Live At 5ive performance?

A great little setting for a start! Going to play a couple of our favourites from Modern Pressure and a sick Ryan Adams song. Tune in and tap out x
