  • Podunk Perspective #58 - Deltona

    Hosted By Seth Packan
    Shot in Nashville, TN. Produced by Nolan Sritan Photo.

    Deltona             
    Deltona is a country trio carving out their own lane—rooted in tradition, wired for the modern era, and loud enough to make Nashville take notice. With a sound that fuses gritty Southern storytelling, rock-driven riffs, and arena-ready melodies, Deltona delivers music that feels both familiar and electric.

    Three guys from three different states – Chris Deaton (Tennessee), Caleb Miller (Ohio) and Ned Abernathy (Georgia) – met at a writers’ round at Nashville’s famous Bluebird Café. Together, Deltona is unapologetically loud, unshakably tight, and unmistakably authentic.

    With songs that hit hard and stick around, they’re aiming for country radio, sold-out shows, and a lasting legacy. The trio’s debut single “Heartbreak Fix”, first live shows, and upcoming album are all in motion. As Ned puts it: “You have to listen to this shit.”
