Gabe Dixon
Joe's Pub425 Lafayette Street, New York 10003
Gabe Dixon is billed for this Joe’s Pub date. The available event information does not say whether he will perform solo or with a band, and no guest, release, tribute, residency, or other program detail has been announced. Expect the focus to be on Dixon’s songs and piano-led musical world, but the specific onstage formation for this performance has not been confirmed.
Born and raised in Tennessee and based in Nashville, Dixon is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose work draws together piano-pop, rock, folk and soul. He is known for “Find My Way,” the main-title theme for The Proposal, and for music heard on television; he is also a current member of Tedeschi Trucks Band. His collaborations and performances have included Paul McCartney, Alison Krauss & Union Station, Supertramp, Loggins & Messina and O.A.R., while songs of his have been covered by Garth Brooks, Taj Mahal, Keb’ Mo’ and Ben Rector. Writing about his former band, American Songwriter praised its “piano-pop driven fare,” “universally appealing, astute lyrics,” and “robust grooves.” Blogcritics called Dixon’s writing “intelligent and introspective” and “emotionally honest.”
The stage is set in a converted library space with a striped bar and photos of legends like Leonard Cohen and Amy Winehouse lining the walls. You'll find yourself seated on velvet couches or at candle-lit tables, close enough to hear every note from the back. The sound, engineered by technicians who've worked with John Legend and The Notorious B.I.G., is consistently ranked among the best in New York. Three shows a day, dinner and drinks served throughout, and a menu ranging from Italian small plates to craft cocktails; it's a place where music and conversation flow together, and where both rising stars and legends have made their U.S. debuts.
