Dixie Dirt’s music has a bizarre intoxicating effect on people. Maybe because of
their cult-leader-like talents, as of yet nobody’s been able to name their sound.
“Appalachian art punk” was a favorite description from the Metro Pulse in
Knoxville.
Fans try to wrap their minds around it by saying "you guys are like Wilco meets
the Pixies" or "a cross between Tool and Radiohead but with Chan Marshall
singing". Or this gem, "you sound like no other band ever but somehow your songs
are so familiar, its like I put them on mixed tapes in junior high." Awww, we
love you too.
Dixie Dirt’s live shows are the only place on the planet where punks, hippies,
metalheads, hipsters, folkies, professors and rednecks can all hang out together
and still play nice. The shows are so completely mind-blowing, people actually
lose time then bitch at them for playing "for like only 30 minutes, man", after a
two-hour set with an encore.
Their fans are often compelled to do weird shit after the show such as give the
band hair clippings, anecdotes from childhood, make strange obsessive comments
about living on a mountaintop with them, give them the clothes they’re wearing,
start crying or buy one of their albums: Pieces of the World, On Our Way Like We
Never Met, Springtime is for the Hopeless and Other Ideas.
If you missed them at Bonnaroo or Sundown in the City; fear not, they’re shopping
a demo and will soon be in a city near you.
SEE DIXIE DIRT AT
BONNAROO!!
Trust that one day, generally couth professionals will be
ripping off their ties and giving them to the band in a shower of thank-yous ALL
OVER THE WORLD, instead of just on the East Coast. If you don’t believe that, go
see them play. They will gladly accept your shoes and add them to the collection;
no matter what size you wear because they're very open-minded like that.

dixie dirt, How's it going? I just wanted to let you know that my debut "Like I'm Beautiful" is now available on iTunes, on sale for only $5.94 this week!
Hope you have an amazing day! Be blessed, Kelly Murray
Please, please, please post the "Shined," song. It's been so long since I've heard it, it's driving me insane. I don't want to forget it. I have all of your other songs on CD, just not that one.
Fuck .99, I'll pay 10.99 just for that one song. Just to have it--to remember the best fucking band I've ever heard in my life.
Sorry if this seems totally lame...it really does mean a lot to me.
Hi & thanks for being part of my circle on MySpace, I would like to personally invite you to preview my latest release & to find out why the critics are hailing TRAININGDAY as a pure adrenaline rush.
Benefit show for Chris Hawkins at The Catalyst! If you have any other plans, they are crap. They should be changed, because this is actually important, it helps out friends that are in need.
Saturday the 23rd @ 4620 Reinvented Pegasi51, Soundtrack Black and One-vs-One Pegasi51 is back after a 5 year break Soundtrack Black features former members of Immortal Chorus and One-vs-One is ready to rock the house!
We are very proud to announce, that Monocular s "Water Shape EP" is available at your favorite Online-Store now.
Containing the single "Water Shape" from the forthcoming album "Somewhere On The Line" (April 03, 2009 VierSieben Records/Alive) and three non-album tracks ("Consequence", "To Admire The Life", "Ravenclaw"), it is definitely a must have for all fans of filigree and athmospheric electrosounds.
Where bands like Lamb or Frou Frou left a gap in the late 90s and early 21st century, Monocular redefined the sound and set new standards in developing their complex music by connecting charismatic vocals with entrancing soundscapes.
