New CD…My Family Tree…released in early ‘09

Alex Dixon’s new CD, My Family Tree, will be released in early 2009.  His first CD, The Vintage Room, featuring bluesman Cash McCall, was strictly a Chicago Blues CD, which is strictly Alex’s roots.  This next CD focuses on all the genres that was influenced by the blues.  Alex was lucky enough to be taught by his grandfather and to be around him when he met the numerous rock bands that had recorded his music.  Some of it might have rubbed off on him…

 

The CD features BB Chung King on guitar and vocals, Marcy Levy on vocals, James Gadson on drums, Gerald Johnson on bass, Alvino Bennett on drums, Michael Fell on harmonica and Dave Dills on vocals. And, of course, Alex on the keys! A sneak peak is now available at www.myspace.com/dixonlandingmusic2.
