Funky Rivertown Fest: Delta 88 and The Crossed Lines

Funky Rivertown Fest is a brand-new weeklong music festival in downtown Ypsilanti, dedicated to original music. Concerts each night at 7:30 PM, matinee Saturday at 2:30. Program includes many Detroit Music Award winners playing across many genres. Indie folk rock band Delta 88 creates their own unique sound like haunted mountain spirituals played through a distortion pedal. From somber ballads to anthemic battle cries, their sound is that of an American hymn. The Crossed Lines started as a recording project to tell a story of hope, violence and lost love. Think the B-side of Abbey Road meets the Red-Headed Stranger.
