Texas honky tonker Dallas Burrow & his band make their Dirty Drummer debut!

A Texas-born Americana artist rooted in the tradition of his home state's songwriting heroes, Dallas Burrow built a career on both sides of the Atlantic with his 2019 debut, Southern Wind. Recorded in Nashville, the album reached Number 25 on the UK Americana Chart and Number 4 on the US Alt-Country chart, paving the way for a string of cross-country shows alongside fellow road warriors like Charley Crockett.

For Burrow , a lifelong explorer who'd spent his 20s on the move, chasing his museacross most of America and Europe while rubbing shoulders with luminaries like BobDylan and Dr. John — being so far away from home felt natural. Even so, he began missing the stability of his new life back in Texas, where he'd built a family and gotten sober. His second album, 2021's Dallas Burrow, marks both a symbolic and literal homecoming for the songwriter, who recorded the new material with modern-day legend Bruce Robison in the rural Texas countryside. It's a record about embracing maturity and the responsibilities of family life, sung by Burrow in a voice that bears both the road-worn weariness of a lifelong highwayman and the fierce fire of a man reborn. -Andrew Leahey
