  • MEN of ACTION MURRY HAMMOND JD WILKES TEDDY THOMPSON JASON and the SCORCHERS DB Harris (Deron Braxton to His Family) Is a Native of Birmingham, Alabama
    Online Issue 5 WINTER 2008 in this issue MEN OF ACTION MURRY HAMMOND JD WILKES TEDDY THOMPSON JASON AND THE SCORCHERS DB Harris (Deron Braxton to his family) is a native of Birmingham, Alabama. He notes of his home State that “Hank Williams, Louvin Brothers, and the Maddox family had some roots there, but as far as what got me first it was probably bluegrass. From there it was sort of a porthole into country for me. I'm really glad I found some real key influences that turned me on to what I do now." He recorded an album Deep Dark Black having written the songs while down in Mexico and recorded it back in Alabama. He recorded the follow up Can I Return These Flowers? in Austin, Texas drawing from such talented local players as Eddie Perez to make n album that was described by one local writer as a blend of Dwight Yoakam, Chris Isaak, and The Mavericks. A fair description of the mix between the singing styles of Roy Orbison and the Bakersfield sounds of Buck Owens and Wynn Stewart. DB was doing a double marketing degree from Auburn University whikle parsuing his musical career. For his next release he added more guitars, some groovy Farfisa organ, a hint of surf pop and the result was Contagious Heartache, a concept record of sorts that looked at the trials and tribulations of heartache that was at times darker than the previous album but without losing its sense of humour. In January 2006 DB moved to Nashville, Tennessee where he recorded his latest album Country For Groovers which has just been released.
