Founding members of Delirious? bring the songs behind a generation of worship to Nashville for one intimate night
Martin Smith and Stu G host "King of Fools: An Evening with Martin Smith & Stu G of Delirious?" at Rocketown on Saturday, November 14
Martin Smith and Stu G, founding members of the British band Delirious?, will play one intimate, seated evening of songs and stories at Rocketown in Nashville on Saturday, November 14, 2026.
The night is built around the 30th anniversary of their album, King of Fools, and the songs that made Delirious? one of the most influential bands in modern worship music, including "I Could Sing of Your Love Forever," "History Maker" and "Did You Feel the Mountains Tremble?", and the stories behind them that most fans have never heard.
Who are Delirious?
Delirious? started in 1992 in Littlehampton, a small seaside town in West Sussex, England, as the house band for a local youth event called Cutting Edge. Their songs spread from that room into churches around the world, and they are still sung every Sunday, often by people who have never heard of the band.
They became one of the few worship bands to cross into the mainstream UK charts, with singles such as "Deeper," "Promise" and "See the Star," which reached No. 16 in 1999. Their 1997 debut album, King of Fools, went Silver in the UK. The band played its final concert at London's Hammersmith Apollo on November 29, 2009.
If you're new to them, start with these songs:
• "I Could Sing of Your Love Forever" (1994), often called a modern worship classic • "History Maker", one of the band's best-loved anthems
• "Did You Feel the Mountains Tremble?"
• "Deeper"
• "Majesty"
Martin Smith was the band's lead singer and wrote many of its best-known songs, including "I Could Sing of Your Love Forever." Since the band ended he has written songs and led worship at conferences around the world, published his autobiography, Delirious, in 2011, and helped found CompassionArt, a charity that gives songwriting royalties to people in poverty.
Stu G (Stuart Garrard) was the band's lead guitarist from 1994. After Delirious? he co-founded the band One Sonic Society, toured with Amy Grant and Michael W. Smith, and has become a respected songwriter and producer. JHS Pedals makes a Stu G signature version of its Kilt overdrive pedal.
King of Fools Event Details
