Cutting Edge (1993-1996)

Delirious? began life as a worship band for a youth outreach event called "Cutting Edge", instigated by the Arun Community Church in Littlehampton, West Sussex, England.[2] As the popularity of these events increased, and the band also played at other "Cutting Edge" events along the South Coast reaching as far as Southampton.

The music became well known in Christian circles, and demand grew for recordings. Four EPs were released under the "Cutting Edge" name before the group made the decision to turn professional and change their name to "Delirious?" in 1996.[1] By that time, they had already sold over seventy thousand EPs by mail order. // Extended play (EP) is the name typically given to vinyl records or CDs which contain more than one single but are too short to qualify as albums. ...

King of Fools (1997-1998)

On 30 August 1995, Martin, his wife, and Jon were involved in a near-fatal car accident. Jon and Martin's wife were unhurt but Martin was in hospital for several weeks.[3] While in the hospital, Martin made the decision to become a full-time musician, and Delirious? was born.[3] They gained success in 1997 following the release of King of Fools, the first studio album released under their new name. King of Fools eventually went silver in the United Kingdom, and Delirious? became one of the most popular and well-known Christian rock groups both in the UK and the United States. Songs such as "Deeper" and "History Maker" gained anthemic status and still surface regularly at Christian youth events. Delirious? also released three singles to the mainstream UK Charts - "White Ribbon Day", "Deeper", and "Promise". The last two both reached number twenty with very little radio airplay;[1] "Deeper" remains the band's best-selling single with over thirty thousand copies sold.[2] is the 242nd day of the year (243rd in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

Mezzamorphis (1999)

The 1999 album Mezzamorphis attained number twenty-five in the album charts (number two in the independent section), and soon became certified silver in the UK. The band found resistance in the mainstream due to their "Christian" label despite generally positive reviews in the music press. However, the work was aimed as a "secular" audience, causing many former fans to shun the album and claiming that Delirious? had "sold out" to mainstream markets.[1] The Virgin marketed version omitted three songs, "Jesus' Blood", which was explicitly faith oriented[1], and the praise and worship songs "Love Falls Down" and "Kiss Your Feet".[1] Mezzamorphis is a rock album by the Christian band Delirious?. It was released in 1999 to near-universal positive critical reception, reaching number twenty-five in the album charts (number two in the indies), and has since gone silver in the UK, meaning that it has sold over 60,000...

Glo (2000)

In 2000, the band released a worship-oriented album, Glo (short for glorious). This album was the number one Christian seller for eight months. Several songs from the album, while not being released as actual singles, gained immense popularity in the Christian-music world, most notably the guitar-driven "My Glorious" and the more introspective "Jesus' Blood". The track "Investigate" eventually became a favourite concert closer for Delirious?. That year the band toured the US and appeared to an audience of 55,000 at the Creation Festival.[3] Glo is an album by the band Delirious?.

Naming Confusion

The question mark is part of the official name. On the band's early albums, the final s before the question mark was rendered as a 5.[1] According to drummer/bandmember Stewart Smith, this occurred because the keyboard he was using at the time did not have the letter "s" and he improvised with the number 5 on the keypad--a convenient reflection of the band name. In some circles, therefore, the band's name often appears as Deliriou5?. The band's logo changed in 1999, and the glyph was replaced with a character that could be an s or a 5. It should be noted that the name has always been spelled as Delirious? in official, non-graphical literature. This is consistent with the names of the band's record company (Furious?) and publisher (Curious?).


Delirious? Live

Delirious? regularly play at Christian events such as the Greenbelt festival in the UK as well as mainstream festivals such as at the Glastonbury Festival. In the USA, they have played at such events as Acquire the Fire (an event hosted by Teen Mania) and Spirit West Coast. In New Zealand they have made appearances at the Parachute Music Festival, the largest 4-day Christian music festival in the southern hemisphere. They have also been the support act for several notable secular bands/artists, such as Bon Jovi in 2001 and Bryan Adams in 2002. In 2005, they helped lead worship at Soul Survivor and also took part in the closing festivities of World Youth Day following Pope Benedict XVI's Mass in Köln, Germany.

The band played a live show on the 14th of August 2004 in Athens, Greece, in the Omonia Square, as a part of the varied cultural activities that took place during the Olympic Games of Athens.


As part of the launch of their new site which involves a members only section called the "Living Room", Delirious? have began to sell tickets for what they call Living Room gigs. These gigs are presumed to take part in small venues across the UK (and later perhaps the world) in which the band will play to a limited audience and give away freebies. The first of these gigs is at the London Embassy in Mayfair and is limited to 100 tickets to the public. The band plan to give away free laynards and a special 2-song EP of their 2008 album 'Kingdom Of Comfort'.
