Song o' the Week - August 29, 2010

Originating in South Florida, the Gabe Dixon Band have made New York City their home for almost a decade. Since forming they have released three full-length studio albums and one live album. They have also turned quite a few heads, getting airplay on NBC promo spots and landing a song on the soundtrack of the Sandra Bullock film "The Proposal". Frontman Gabe Dixon has even served as studio keyboardist to Sir Paul McCartney, which led to a sit-in spot with McCartney during the Concert for New York City following the attack on the World Trade Center in 2001.

What began as a three-piece "piano rock" band has evolved to a much larger, swinging sound including horns, multiple back-up vocalists, and varieties of stringed instruments. The selection I offer you today is from their 2008 self-titled release...
