Delia-h and the Male Gaze is a local band in Carrboro. From a young age, Delia-h has used songwriting as a way to mark the chapters of her life; if she doesn’t write a song about it, it’s almost like it didn’t happen. She prides herself in protecting her own sacred, private relationship with creativity, and hopes to inspire others in her community to do the same. However, she also really likes it when people clap for her. So you do the math.
Her band The Male Gaze, made up of her brothers, boyfriend, and hot blonde roommate, helps arrange her original music, typically over alcoholic ciders in an old, creature-ridden cabin. The band’s genre is quite fluid; songs in a Male Gaze set range from cheeky punk to soulful funk to pensive folk. But Delia-h’s lyricism and melodic instincts act as the glue, connecting all of the tunes with authentic themes of love, guilt, anger and introspection.
