Delaney Davidson, from Auckland, New Zealand, is a multi-talented singer-songwriter, producer, and instrumentalist. The son of John William Davidson and Glyn Ellen Abbott, he grew up in Christchurch and was educated at the Christchurch Rudolf Steiner School.

With his distinct voice and wry humour, Davidson captivates audiences through haunting melodies and compelling storytelling.

Davidson has released eight solo albums and toured globally for over thirteen years. Beyond music, he also works in visual arts, theatre, and film, further showcasing his creative versatility. His background and eclectic talents make him a standout figure in the alternative music scene.
