The Sure Shot Hunters bring an unmarked sound to blues-rock. Creating a hybrid fusion of distinctive blues feel and rock energy, they are captivating live musicians.

Hiltz had gauged Delaney’s interest in joining ship and Delaney did just that. Together they formed the tight trio that is now five years strong and has an impressive list of tight original tunes that forges the Sure Shot Hunters signature sound.
