Black River Delta

Black River Delta, the blues rock trio from Bollnäs, Sweden, have made a name for themselves
since their inception with a raw and soulful sound deeply rooted in the Swedish forests of
Hälsingland.
Raised among pine trees, gravel roads, and long winters, their music carries a unique blend of
darkness, melancholy, and drive—where influences from blues legends meet modern rock. The
band has previously released the acclaimed albums Devil on the Loose (2016), VOL II. (2018), and
Shakin’ (2021), shaping their sound through everything from Robert Johnson and R.L. Burnside to
contemporary acts like The Black Keys, Gary Clark Jr., and BRMC.
Rather than looking toward American landscapes, Black River Delta draw inspiration from what’s
closest to them—the surrounding forests, the roads along the E4 highway, and the constant
tension between wanting to leave and wanting to stay.
Later this year, the band will release their new album via Despotz Records. On the upcoming
record, they return to their roots and further deepen their sound—where modern rock meets
classic blues, filtered through a Nordic melancholy in which silence, darkness, and solitude hold
just as much weight as the music itself. More information about the album will be announced
soon.
