Dexter and the Moonrocks: The 12 Steps Tour with Cigarettes @ Sunset and High June

Dexter and The Moonrocks didn’t set out to change rock music – but that’s exactly what they’re doing. A fry cook, an oil field operator, a concrete surface decorator, and a kids’ baseball coach came together in West Texas, blending the country and western of their childhoods with the grunge they fell in love with as teenagers. That fusion became Western Space Grunge—a genre of their own making that turned them from a grassroots phenomenon into a force to be reckoned with.
Their breakout single “Sad in Carolina” took them from small-town bars to seven weeks at No. 1 on U.S. Alternative radio, proving their DIY grit and fearless sound could go head-to-head with the biggest names in rock. From viral covers to festival stages, they’re proving they’re not just next up: they’re inevitable.
