Aside from headline shows, Delorentos have opened a number of high profile shows throughout their career, including 2007 support slots for Sinead O'Connor at Heineken Green Energy, the Dave Matthews Band at the Point Theatre and Arctic Monkeys, Supergrass and The Coral at Malahide Castle. The band have also played with the likes of Idlewild, Gang of Four, Bell X1 and The Futureheads in locations such as London, New York City, Chicago and Toronto. They have featured at numerous major festivals and tours including Electric Picnic, Oxegen and South by Southwest. Delorentos were invited to play a set at the 2006 edition of Other Voices: Songs From a Room and were also regular performers on The Cafe. They have built up a small fanbase in the neighbouring United Kingdom through appearances on television shows such as CD:UK. They have also had several songs feature on the PlayStation 3 karaoke video game, SingStar.
Delorentos spent much of 2008 working on their second album, playing few live shows. By early 2009, they were reported to be performing with Director as both bands showcased material from their second albums. However, on 17 February 2009, Delorentos announced on their MySpace and official website that Ronan Yourell had decided to leave the band. The entire band subsequently announced a split but rescinded this decision two months later. Their second album You Can Make Sound was released on 9 October 2009 and led to two more Meteor nominations for Delorentos in 2010.
