It's awesome discovering truly great new music. I'm obsessed with Delgrès. They're a Caribbean blues rock band with a tuba instead of a bass guitar and they sing mostly in Creole with occasional phrases in French and English. They're named after a revolutionary anti-slavery leader, Louis Delgrès, who rebelled against Napoleon after he reinstated slavery throughout the French Caribbean.
