Purchase tickets now for Gleason Fest!
Tickets Available now for Gleason Fest 2016! Delbert the Band is looking forward to being a part of this year's big event. This music festival is inspired by Spokane native Steve Gleason who was diagnosed with ALS in 2011. Funds raised from ticket sales will benefit the Gleason Initiative Foundation. Steve’s intention for the festival is to raise money and awareness about ALS while celebrating life, enjoying family and friends, and presenting Spokane with great live music in an awesome setting. This year Gleason Fest moves to the Lilac Bowl Amphitheater in Riverfront Park. Delbert the Band is excited to play alongside acts including "Portugal the Man", "Pickwick", and "Hey! is for Horses".  

Gleason Fest means a lot to Delbert the Band.  Our history with Steve goes way back. Three of us went to the same high-school (even as far back as the same grade school) as Steve.  We played shows at his fraternity durning his time at WSU. We are excited to be a part of something like this. What a great opportunity for us to get back together to support this celebration.  Our goal as a band has always been to encourage people to have a little fun through some light-hearted positive music, let go for a while, and simply smile. It's awesome to be a part of a festival that intends to have such a big impact and deliver a positive message to so many people. We gotta thank Steve for bringing all of us together, not just our band, I mean all of us.
