Rocco DeLuca

From a young age, he displayed a deep passion for music, inspired by his father and uncle's soulful playing.

After the band's last performances, DeLuca continued as a solo artist as well as working on projects with Slash and Robbie Robertson.

I like the street corner aspect of working with Rocco, it woke up a certain part of my renegade ways I'm trying to keep alive these days.

I think that he's got the power to be a contemporary troubadour, as I see it, and I hope I can be his friend for a long time, whether I am operating in the same limelight, ahead of him, behind him, in his shadow, whatever it takes, I'll be there.

Long-time friend Ryan Carman played the drums, glockenspiel, cajón, and bells among other percussion instruments.

For live performances of 2007 tours, the band featured Brett Bixby on keyboards, guitar, and backing vocals.

Actor Kiefer Sutherland, co-owner of Ironworks with Jude Cole, offered support as the band's tour promoter and manager, as well as helping to produce the documentary.

DeLuca began touring as a solo artist, continuing to hone a raw, confessional, bluesy sound.

Once again produced by Daniel Lanois, the album found DeLuca returning to the more stripped-down sound of Drugs 'N Hymns and building upon it.

To craft the album, DeLuca invited a number of local California musicians to his home to record sessions in his bedroom.

Robert Plant selected Satie as one of his favorite pieces from Goodbye To Language for his Golden Gods compilation.
