Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio—or as it is
sometimes referred to, DLO3—specialize in the lost art of “feel good
music.” The ingredients of this intoxicating cocktail include a big
helping of the 1960s organ jazz stylings of Jimmy Smith and Baby Face
Willette; a pinch of the snappy soul strut of Booker T. The M.G.’s and
The Meters; and sprinkles Motown, Stax Records, blues, and cosmic Jimi
Hendrix-style guitar. It’s a soul-jazz concoction that goes straight to
your heart and head makes your body break out in a sweat.
The
band features organist Delvon Lamarr, a self-taught virtuosic musician,
with perfect pitch who taught himself jazz and has effortlessly been
able to play a multitude of instruments. On guitar is the dynamo Jimmy
James who eases through Steve Cropper-style chanking guitar, volcanic
acid-rock freak-out lead playing, and slinky Grant Green style jazz.
From Reno, Nevada is drummer Dan Weiss (also of the powerhouse soul and
funk collective The Sextones). Dan’s smoldering pocket-groove drumming
locks in the trio’s explosive chemistry.
Founded by Lamarr’s
wife and manager Amy Novo, the trio started from humble beginnings in
2015, but since then has released two Billboard charting albums and
toured the world to sold out venues. The trio returns now with their
second studio album, I Told You So, with even heavier grooves and more
confidence. It may have been several years since their most recent
studio effort, but they haven’t missed a beat.
