Earlier this year, I told you about an awesome band that I fell in love with from Australia, Sunset Riot. You can read that post here. They really caught my eye and couldn’t wait to hear more from them. Of course, I learned about them a little too late since they did disband later in the year.
I was excited to hear that singer Dellacoma Rio was still pursing his passion for music in the aftermath of Sunset Riot’s disbanding. Dellacoma has such an amazingly unique voice that draws you in to his musical world. Dellacoma has recently released his lyric video for his debut single, “Dead Will Rise” and you can check it out here:
Dellacoma explains more about the song, “Dead Will Rise”, “The song is pretty much an anthem for those who feel like they’ve been written off. Coming off the back of Sunset Riots breakup I felt like a lot of people were expecting that my career was finished musically, that I was effectively dead as an artist. I guess this is my statement to say “I’m still here, still alive and more determined than ever”
Music Junkie Press: What is the oddest gift you have ever received?
Dellacoma: Probably a remote control car with the Sunset Riot logo painted on the bonnet of the car
Music Junkie Press: What is your favorite Holiday Food Item?
Dellacoma: this is a toughy…I am a sucker for Christmas pudding tho and prawns are always a fav!
Music Junkie Press: What is your favorite Holiday family tradition that you still do today?
Dellacoma: Fruit salad for breakfast on New Years day
Music Junkie Press: Do you have a favorite holiday movie or song?
Dellacoma: Love Actually, hands down! I love that movie 🙂
Music Junkie Press: Do you have a specific memory of a certain ornament or holiday decoration?
Dellacoma: I used to do little hand drawn cartoons of each year when I was a kid and i noticed recently that my mum still puts them up every year. That was pretty special and made me feel included even tho I live so far away

Hi Dell…You probably don’t remember me. We meet in Philadelphia when I came to hear you play with Theresa and Becky Anderson. I’m so glad you are still singing (even tho I will miss Sunset Riot). I love the new song!! Keep up the good work and hope to see you again in the U.S. Let us know if you will be in our area!! Marilyn Curry
