    Dixie Witch - (Austin, TX) When the road is the only home you know a band has no choice but to go from the talented exuberant group of musicians they started out as to a well oiled rawk machine destroying every venue in their path. Such is the case of Texas trio Dixie Witch. Born in the fall of 1999, Dixie Witch played their first live show at the legendary (and now extinct) Emo’s in Houston, Texas in January of 2000. From that explosive first show sprang... a relentless road schedule that criss crossed their homeland. Leveling venue after venue, the band quickly gained a large and loyal Texas following.

    In August of 2000, Dixie Witch recorded a five-song demo which was well received and began to garner the band national attention through a well-deserved "buzz" via the internet. By the beginning of 2001, Dixie Witch had inked their first record deal with the Texas based doom metal label, Brainticket Records. The next few years was a blur of roadside rest stops and countless club dates. With thousands of miles of road under their belts Dixie Witch has honed their talents to a razor sharp point . "

    Wildfires- (Lafayette, LA) Formed early 2009 (The Ghost Is Clear). First proper show in June 2009. Lineup adjustments and an obvious name change endured. Demo was recorded, more lineup changes, then the Qualms EP (tracked at Broken Art Recordings - Lafayette, LA) featuring Max Binet, Grant Leblanc (bass/vox), Dave Graeff (guitar), and Jeremy Randazzo. On the road as much as possible, weekend tours and copious amounts of local shows with signed/touring bands. Summer 2010, a split with Moose was tracked, which would be the last album to feature Grant on bass. A replacement was secured in Jon Romein, then lots of touring with Moose to promote the split. Fall of same year, Romein replaced by Tyler Harper on bass, and the second guitar was shed. Within a month, new material was written, then debuted while opening for EyeHateGod in late October. November 2010 the 'Fear Will Rust' EP was tracked (again at Broken Art). In February 2011 we acquired second guitarist, Adam Harris. There's big plans for the future which do not include slowing down...
