My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 2/27/2007
Band Website: myspace.com/dixonsbeat
Band Members: Mr. Cab Speed. Your no. 1 drummer in Scandinavia. You'll not find any drum beating monster in town as tight as this muthafucker. Skiffle, shuffle, bossanova, whatever the style. Mr. Speed is here to rock your butt off. Get naked, get on the beat, beat, beat, beat: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...

Cab SPEED: dr

Car DIXON: gt/voc
Mr. Car Dixon represents the finest of self taught guitarists on the Scandinavian RocknRoll scene. You will not get more authentic sounding guitar solos from any student at the music academy. Not even the guys studying 60'ies soul/r'n'b fuck. This is fuckin' rock'm'roll! Don't mess with it. We go BLUES STYLE!!! Keep an eye OPEN & don't miss the show. You might be lucky to see us in your neighborhood as part of our spring-tour.

Influences:

We play rock'n'roll

Influences are many but to mention a few:

Mr. Danko Jones
Mr. James Brown
Mr. Jon Spencer
Mr. Van Morrison
Mr. Elvis Presley
and I am sure, ladies & gentlemen, you will think of quite a few fine artists that I can't think of in this very moment.
For the love of R O C K !

Sounds Like: Sounds like a two man blues combo
Sounds like dirty garage rock’n’roll.
Sounds like a lot of trouble
Sounds like something you wanna go check out
Sounds to me like you want a t-shirt

If you like rythm & punk, you like D:S

Record Label: Heptown
Type of Label: Indie
