ABOUT DEKE DICKERSON:
Friday, September 18th marks the Metro Detroit return of roots rock great, DEKE DICKERSON, considered by many as the foremost "rockabilly" styled musician in the world! While not avoiding the label "rockabilly," Deke prefers to just let his music speak for itself: bluegrass, western swing, Memphis soul, doo-wop and rhythm & blues are just the tip of the twangy six-strings for this hard working artist. Kicking off his career in Missouri at the age of 17, Deke founded the legendary surf-garage band UNTAMED YOUTH and in '91 Deke moved to LA to join pal Dave Stuckey in forming the infamous DAVE & DEKE COMBO. Performing mainly as a solo artist since '97, Deke has released a steady and stunning succession of roots rock, country and rockabilly albums, culminating with 2007's "King of The Whole Wide World" (Major Label), a raucous romp through the twisted world of Americana. Eclipz Ultra Lounge is proud to present Ecco-Fonic Recording Artist DEKE DICKERSON and THE MODERN SOUNDS!
