Delta Dos

Delta Dos is a musical group from Wacouta, Minnesota. It has two members, Guanabana and Pagio; Delta Dos formerly had another member, Bailar Tystrom, but he left the band citing creative differences and a large dose of apathy.

Delta Dos is a post-electric style band, with a hint of centrifuge rock. They currently have a two album record deal with Skyishet Records.

[edit] History/Origins

The concept began in 2007, a project started by Gabby, Jess, Stef, Jehovah and Pagio. They podcasting as "Wonderfully Randomous" and recording wonderfully randomous things. They soon disbanded due to lack of interest. The only members of this original group to show up in later songs and recordings (besides Pagio) is Jess Banitt, in the 2nd recording of "Wookies and Cheese".

W3 After the disbanding of Wonderfully Randomous, Pagio was joined by her brother Bailar Tystrom and Guanabana, then called MC Maxxx. They began recording sessions and eventually recorded a few songs, along with several skits. They began calling themselves W3 for 'Wacouta Three'. They immediately stopped calling themselves this. Soon after, Bailar left the group because he had to go to soccer practice.

AUDACIOUS Pagio and Guanabana continued spontaneously singing songs and mixing them using Audacity. Because their music was ridiculous and they were using Audacity, they decided to call their first album Audacious. Their first two singles off the album were "Forest (The Om Nom Song)" and "Five". They later decided to make "Five" a hidden track, because it was that awesome. Guanabana started mixing beats in FL Studio, soon amassing a collection. Deciding that they should sing along to one of the beats, Delta Dos wrote their first song, "Skinny Jeans". It has been critically acclaimed for its clever rhythms and rhymes, and random opera singing in the third verse. The album's release date is still to be determined, and the track list is not yet finalized. In an interview, Guanabana said that Audacious "...is still a work in progress", but that "...we may finish it. Eventually." " Charity Work Delta Dos peformed at Pfizer's "Laugh Your Spleen Out (And Into Somebody Else's Body)" charity event, along with Wanda Sykes, Weird Al, Steve Martin, and Bob Costas. They performed "Five", "Skinny Jeans" and a special version of "Wookie".
