What is The Deli?
The Deli is an independent publication and website that focuses on local indie music scenes and emerging artists (from rock to electronic and folk, with a little bit of hip hop). It currently publishes a printed magazine about the NYC and LA music scenes and has daily updated, separate webpages tackling new emerging music in various cities, including NYC, LA, DC Area, Chicago, Portland, Austin, and Nashville.
What is The DC Area Deli ?
The DC Area Deli is a daily updated web site focused on the independent music scene of the DC Area, including Baltimore, Richmond, and the entire DMV.
Mission Statement
The Deli is a resource for DC and DMV based musical artists and fans. We want to be a place where bands share their music with others, and where fans make their own decisions about what local music they enjoy.
CD Submission Policy
The DC Area Deli only reviews music from artists based in those and surrounding areas.
At this time we only accept digital submission through our CD Submission System here.
For added exposure, you can post mp3s and a blurb about your band on the local Open Blog [this feature will return soon].

Natan Press - DC Area Associate Editor
Natan was raised in Boston, a modern lover in the land of Lemonheads and Lobster. He has lived in DC for 8 years, introducing the less fortunate mid-Atlantic region to his unimpeachable Bostonian taste in music, and training as an attorney. He likes music of all kinds, but mostly just the Inspector Gadget theme.
Hannah Brady - Contributor
Hannah Brady has worked in music since she was straight out of the womb. Her dad brought her to the radio station to record his show every Thursday night, and taught her the power of quality writing and music. He likes to brag that his daughter has pooped on-air.
She kind of likes that too.
After experimenting with band management, merch tables, festivals and artist development, Hannah now spends her time with her harshest critic, a bearded dragon named Syd, writing about local music and looking for new places to share her work. She loves everything about music journalism and plans to continue writing about music for the rest of her life.
Opal Rose - Contributor
Opal Rose is a local music journalist and performing artist. She has been within the DMV music scene since about 2007. Over this time frame she has developed relationships with local brands and artists, and seeks to help raise awareness for them and the unheard indie artist.
