Backstory:
Sandy Dirt was born out of a small town in Arizona, where four childhood friends discovered their shared love for music. The group consisted of Tommy “T-Bone” Watkins on vocals, Jeremy “Jer” Mullins on guitar, Freddie “Fingers” Taylor on keyboard, and Danny “Dirt” Dawson on drum set. They started out by playing small gigs at local bars and clubs, their sound echoing through the dry desert air. As they grew older, their sound evolved, growing more complex and blending different influences from their surroundings. Despite various life changes and moving to different parts of the country, the band stayed together, committed to their passion for making music.

Folk Rock with a hint of Country and Blues.
