Stanton Delaplane

Hello and I hope you like the songs. Things are good in the world of Delaplane. Plenty of gigs, radio stuff and reviews. The beard keeps growing although the hair on top keeps thinning. My loops still make me smile as do all the suggestions of names for my Euphonium from people at gigs.
Timothy X Atack sometimes comes to join me at gigs with his magic fingers on the piano and harmonium and magic voice. Yes, thats him down there on Postcards. I also have the pleasure of singing with him on 'Star and Garter, 3am' by 'The Heath Robinson'. I also now play with Stanton Brass, a group of 6 brass players from here and there.
I've got 3 EPs now. 'Men Dressed as Titans' (which doesn't really represent what I do anymore but I still like it) and 'Mandibular Seetmeats' which is full of looping loveliness.
A highly recommended EP - The Fly
Described as a fascinating set and a superbly produced EP - Blues Matters
The new EP 'Butterfly Beard was released in January 2010.
In 2008 I collaborated with Henrik Dahle and Nathan @BeneathTheBed to write music for the play 'The Last Line'. I also wrote music for an Arts And Health video for Bristol City Council.



'He should be immortalised in Stained Glass Glass.' - Venue Magazine



'A butterfly circles overhead as vaguely ecclesiastical choral looping opens the wonderfully hirsute Delaplane's set of comfortingly morbid narratives made splendid with euphonium, guitar and glockenspiel' - Venue Magazine review of Ashton Court gig
