Anacostia Delta: The Legacy of DC's Telemasters

Anacostia Delta: The Legacy of DC's Telemasters

Thirty of DC’s finest musicians celebrate their heroes and display the virtuosic, genre-blending music championed by the late guitarists, Danny Gatton and Roy Buchanan. This blend of jazz, blues, country, swing, rock, and bluegrass is unique to the musical culture of DC — The Anacostia Delta. The film explores the universe of live music that permeated Washington, D.C. in the post-WWII era.
