From the swamps of southern Louisiana comes the apocalyptic folk rock of Dax Riggs: starting with the teenage death metal of Acidbath on through the gothic dixie-fried trash rock of deadboy and the Elephantmen, Dax has opened for artists as diverse as Queens of the Stone Age to Leon Russell. Like Leadbelly with a devil on his back. Outsider music, for your dying radios, in the basement at the end of the world.

"As if Jeff Buckley covered Ziggy Stardust on the banks of the Mississippi Delta." --ROLLING STONE
"His low Delta howl is the pretty, pained yelp of a wounded swamp animal." --THE NEW YORKER
"Music as much informed by Southern gothic country blues as it is by metal." --ESQUIRE

with special guests...

Red Mouth - this writer of song, story and poem is indescribable. Gospel, field hollers, punk, blues,
crooners and country inform him but none define him.

"A strange brew of Son House, Captain Beefheart, Elvis and Nick Cave, back-boned by stomping, driving Muscle Shoals rhythms. All resulting in a gospel experience through a Gothic Alabama that your typical singer songwriters won't be guiding you anytime soon." - Glen Piston
