The Gabe Dixon Band has just released the music video for their piano-rock single "Till You're Gone". Director Paul Cummings used stop-motion animation to help bring a human piano to life and showcase Dixon's talent on the keys. Today marks the Nashville-based trio's release of their self-titled album. Their Fantasy Records' debut was already deemed one of Paste Magazine's favorite records of the year, and Dixon's vocal talent and piano chops have been praised by fellow musicians across the board including Sara Bareilles and Jamie Cullum. Dan Wilson (Semisonic, Dixie Chicks) co-wrote three songs on the album that features a variety of tracks from heartfelt ballads to pop piano jams in the spirit of Elton John and Ben Folds 5. Check it out on iTunes.
Fantasy Records will released The Gabe Dixon Band's debut studio album "The Gabe Dixon Band" on 26 July 2008 and has already become a favorite of 2008. Paste calls Dixon ""the next great Pop Piano Man. More soulful than Ben Folds, and far less irritating than the Elton John of the past thirty years, Dixon will remind you of Elton when he still had hair and was making albums like Tumbleweed Connection and Madman Across the Water". The Gabe Dixon Band’s self-titled album was recorded live at Nashville’s renowned Blackbird Studios.
