Delirious vs Nirvana (ft. Gabriel Wilson)
from Rock That Doesn't Roll: The Story of Christian Music · host Andrew Gill and Leah Payne
The English worship band Delirious (technically Deliriou5?) certainly changed church music and probably influenced a young Chris Martin of Coldplay, but was their lasting impact on music bigger than Nirvana's? That's the case made in a social media video by our guest today, Gabriel Wilson. Wilson is a veteran of worship bands both as a musician and producer. He once toured with Delirious and has produced Delirious singer Martin Smith in the studio. He also has a deep respect for Nirvana. Andrew and Leah dig into his case for Delirious having a larger impact on music writ large than Nirvana. Gabriel's Video---Do you have a Christian rock story to tell? Want to respond to this episode?
