MY STORY

Sixty plus years of loving Country Music

Six continuous decades of a lifelong musical journey and a love of country music. From learning guitar, getting on stage, thousands of songs, performances and venues, millions of road miles, sound production, recording studios and meeting my heroes. From early local tour vans to nationwide bus tours to building a recording studio. This is a collection of stories, photographs, recordings and more that shaped the journey.

This website will be an ongoing diary of my musical life that I will write over the next few years but it is also replacing an old Rob Dixon and the Lost Cowboy band website. To start with I am going to transfer most of the old site and pictures to this new site so I can retain and honor the memory of my bandmates and our many shows that we performed in Texas from 1981 to 2019

This is a new site. It may change daily and all links do not work. Please be patient. Thank you
