Patti’s Jan. 12 “Inside New Gloucester” column

Billed as “Maine’s Rockin’ Blues Band,” The Delta Knights Band did not disappoint while performing at the Jan. 6 Village Coffee House. Since 1996, this Portland-based band has specialized in the best of R&B, blues, classic rock, and swing. Justin Maxwell, left, handled bass and vocals; Brian Hodgman was on drums, and bandleader Rob Babson pitched in with lead vocals and guitar.
