Details:
Dexter AllenBorn in Crystal Springs Mississippi, Dexter Allen was raised on a farm and grew up understanding that life can still be wholesome with only the bare necessities. His father being a pastor and grandfather a head deacon, the church was no stranger. Dexter began playing guitar at the age of 10, being tutored by his Uncle Porter and intrigued by every sound of music around him. At the age of 12 he began playing bass guitar for his father''s gospel group and traveled around the central Mississippi area for a number of years. Later Dexter began playing for other gospel groups in the area such as, The Dixon Singers and The Robinson Brothers just to name a few. Dexter moved to Jackson, Mississippi in 1995 and teamed up with Airtight Records, a local independent label to share his musical and writing talents in the studio recording R&B, Hip Hop, Blues, Pop, Rap, Country, and Gospel. While playing on Sunday mornings in area churches, and gigging with the Airtight Band as a guitarist and lead vocalist, Dexter landed the lead guitarist role with blues legend Bobby Rush. This was the power surge that jumped Dexter into the Blues and Soul arena. Traveling to France, Japan, Germany, Spain, China, Finland, Iraq, Kuwait, Sweden and all over the United States, Bobby Rush was the vehicle that headed Dexter down the road of Blues. Dexter toured with Bobby for 3 years as lead guitarist, and continues to make occasional international appearances. After the Rush experience, Dexter decided to form his own band and began playing clubs and venues in the southeastern and southwestern states which has been successful in spreading his unique style of guitarship, and vocal ability. This unique style landed Dexter the 2008 Jackson Music Award for Male Vocalist of the year. Earlier in 2008 Dexter decided it''s time to take it to another level and become a recording artist, since he''s no stranger to the studio or the stage. Being talented to play Guitar, Bass and keyboards, Dexter began to write and record his own music and delivered the current album titled Bluezin My Way, a Bluezy, Soulful album, with stories of Love, Lust, Lies, and Allibies. This is the first of many more to come. Dexter Allen''s music and entertaining stage performance is sure to leave you enlighted, delighted, and excited that you had the opportunity to see and hear one of the best 21st century blues performers from Mississippi
