"Gideon Smith & The Dixie Damned Discography"
Based in North Carolina, ex-Antiseen roadie Gideon Smith started the group in 1997 with former Animal Bag members 70-453 exam. Soon a self titled ep was released on Colorado based Doom giants Game Two Records, which quickly sold out of it's initial pressing. Gid and his band were quickly labeled 'the real thing' and gathered high praise in the press and internet music world 650-251 exam. To get the ball rolling and work up some rock and roll spirit mojo, Smith then went alone to the legendary Sun Studio, the birthplace of rock and roll (Elvis,... More > Jerry Lee, Cash, Perkins) and recorded a session of live acoustic demos with engineer James Lott, using 50 yr old microphones and a chip on his shoulder.

Mighty bad ass kings of 70's rock Small Stone Records signed Gid in 1999, and the debut full length "Southern Gentlemen" was released to excellent reviews and much success. The album was mixed by Al Sutton (Kid Rock, Sheryl Crow, others) 642-812 exam. In reviews the debut cd was called 'an insight of what it would sound like if Elvis sang in a stoner rock band' (AOL,All Music Guide) and "Gideon sings like a southern, rawer Jim Morrison, singing of ghost riders, voodoo rites and mysticism" (L.Gaglio). In the last few years, the band has appeared on six tribute albums, several television programs (including 'The Sopranos', Fox Sports, Fusion TV and others) and two indie horror movie soundtracks, as well as winning awards in the underground press for 'best hard rock band' 70-620 exam. Among these was Critic's Choice for 'Best Hard Rock Band 2003" by Creative Loafing, and Featured Hard Rock Artist award in 2004. < Less
