Dexys Midnight Runners é uma banda formada no início dos anos 80, cuja principal figura é o vocalista Kevin Rowland.
O grupo lançou três albuns e em cada um deles apresentava uma formação diferente, mantendo apenas o trombonista além do vocalista fundador (a dupla também era responsável pela co-autoria da maioria das canções). O termos “Dexys” é uma abreviatura da substância dexedrina.
O primeiro álbum, Searching for the young soul rebels
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
