The creation of the album Serpent of the Road was a musical journey for Daxton. The songs developed organically starting with simple melody or riff and then expanding to include sometimes complex arrangements. Weaving his influences from artists like Prince, Jimi Hendrix, and David Bowie, Daxton songs explore themes of wanderlust, self-discovery, and the transient nature of life. The songs capture a particular time and feeling, all wrapped in a heavy psychedelic blues and grungy sound.
Producing and playing music since his early teens, Daxton’s passion has kept him continually creating new material both for his band and solo career. On stage, Daxton comes across like he was born to play, his unique guitar style blending perfectly with heart-warming vocals.
Daxton has appeared at major festivals including the Sydney Blues and Roots and Tamworth Country Music Festival where he supported artists such as Kasey Chambers and Beccy Cole. He also has had one of his tracks ‘Moody Liz’ featured in the popular American TV series Doll House. His guitar playing highlights the influence of legends like Hendrix, Prince, and Zeppelin vibrantly displayed through his concoction of rhythmic blues, funk, and psychedelic rock, layered with amazing melodies.
