Hayseed Dixie

Hayseed Dixie bring together bluegrass and hard rock in their own style of music, which they call “Rockgrass”. Using banjo, fiddle, mandolin and acoustic guitar, the band rework well-known rock songs with the energy and musicianship of traditional Appalachian music.

Formed in Nashville in 2000, they first came to attention with A Hillbilly Tribute to AC/DC, giving tracks such as Highway to Hell and You Shook Me All Night Long a bluegrass makeover. Since then, they’ve put their own spin on songs by artists including KISS, Queen, Led Zeppelin and Motörhead, alongside a catalogue of original material.

With a sound that brings together folk, country and rock, Hayseed Dixie continue to tour internationally, sharing their take on Rockgrass with audiences across the world.
