Dexter and The Moonrocks didn’t set out to change rock music - but that’s exactly what they’re doing. A fry cook, an oil field operator, a concrete surface decorator, and a kids’ baseball coach came together in West Texas, blending the country and western of their childhoods with the grunge they fell in love with as teenagers. That fusion became Western Space Grunge—a genre of their own making that turned them from a grassroots phenomenon into a force to be reckoned with.



They first broke through in 2021 with "Couch," a melancholy slow-burn that resonated deeply with fans and set the foundation for what was to come. That early momentum caught the attention of Severance Records, an imprint of Big Loud Rock, looking to make a statement with its first signing. Together, they released "Western Space Grunge" in July 2024, solidifying the band’s identity and introducing their most defining songs yet. The breakout single "Sad in Carolina" took them from small-town bars to seven weeks at No. 1 on U.S. Alternative radio, proving their DIY grit and fearless sound could go head-to-head with the biggest names in rock.



Now, with “Ritalin”—a stadium-ready anthem already climbing the charts—the record captures a band fully coming into their own. From viral covers to festival stages, they’re proving they’re not just next up: they’re inevitable.
