Gabe Dixon is a Nashville-based artist. His music is piano-driven.
Dixon released his first solo album, One Spark, on August 23, 2011 on Concord Bicycle Music. The album is produced by Marshall Altman and features a duet with Alison Krauss entitled "Even the Rain." Madi Diaz and James Walsh also lend their voices to the songs "Burn for You" and "I Can See You Shine," respectively.
On April 8, 2016, Dixon will release his sophomore solo album, Turns To Gold, on his own label, Rolling Ball Records. The album is produced by Paul Moak and features a duet with Natalie Prass entitled "The Way To Love Me."
In the past, Gabe would play primarily grand piano. However, on "Turns To Gold," he performed all but one song on an upright piano. This choice conveyed a different energy. He and the musicians, including Jano Rix on drums (The Wood Brothers), Viktor Krauss on bass (Lyle Lovett), and Kris Donegan on guitar (Cam), cut everything to analog tape with no click track. The album also features vocal performances by Jason Eskridge, Garrison Starr and Boots Ottestad. Mastering was done by Brad Blackwood at Euphonics Mastering.
Do you remember when you pushed your dreams aside?
The road became so narrow, used to seem so wide
Afraid of what that say, afraid to lose it all
You kept it all inside these blue sky painted walls
Where was I when you decided?
On a day just like today maybe we can see change
It doesn't have to be the same as it's always been
Still gotta write the rest of our history
We can't look the other way on a day just like today
Your eyes are telling me the things you haven't said
Should I just pretend that maybe it's all for the best
If you traded in your flower for something watered down
Help me recognize just where the flame is now
What better time to decide it
On a day just like today maybe we can see change
It doesn't have to be the same as it's always been
Still gotta write the rest of our history
We can't look the other way on a day just like today
On a day just like today
We can't live like this, [Incomprehensible]
As the colors of shiny daylight
'Cause when you're too far gone
The thing get better awful more
And wanna let me prove you wrong
On a day just like today maybe we can see change
It doesn't have to be the same as it's always been
Still gotta write the rest of our history
We can't look the other way
On a day just like today maybe we can see change
It doesn't have to be the same as it's always been
Still gotta write the rest of our history
We can't look the other way on a day just like today
On a day just like today
On a day just like today
