The Deludes, undaunted at Congress' Crabbies show, Fall 2003.

Now that "alt-rock" and "adult contemporary " have become essentially indistinguishable, the Deludes's dose is doubly refreshing. This power trio deftly weaves classic references into its unpretentiously loud wall of sound, taking it to respected studio WaterWorks for further crafting. "Someone found us under a large rock and made the mistake of letting us out," says guitarist and singer Larry Wawro. (Buy that someone a drink.) Larry speaks for the band.
