AN INTERVIEW WITH DEXTER MOORE - PART 1
back to previous page ... »
Like a funkified psychedelic Woody Guthrie, Dexter certainly put the mileage behind him as he spent his early years hitching and busking around the world. As one of his self portrait lyrics portrays in a tribute to Jack Keroac:
'Desolation angel, just a dharma bum, Lonesome traveller on the road'
This is a seasoned traveller whose only inspiration was to live the artist’s way and to keep the music real. Dexter walked away from a major record deal in London in order to keep his integrity intact rather than become one of those who would become what the industry wanted them to be. It was on this journey that he developed his unique and mesmerizing guitar style - A notable feature that has won Dexter fans all over the world.
Along the way Dexter found the time to learn the arts of sound engineering and record production. Producing a number one hit in the process. But it is in his song writing that he truly captures hearts. Now a multi-award winning songwriter, Dexter sells his CDs worldwide over the internet and at his performances. He has spent months on end at the top of various charts and enjoys a somewhat cult-like following of musicians and discerning listeners.
Dexter is also an accomplished Martial artist with a number of black belts to his name. A qualified coach and instructor. This is his main pastime – when he is not being a complete musical workaholic. By that it is meant that he is someone who does a concert to the world on the internet nearly every morning!
He has performed in excess of 20 live shows a week or more and endless hours crafting his productions. As well as that he is in the middle of writing his autobiography – one very interesting read, due to one very interesting life!
