MH: And for those who haven't seen you live before, what can they expect from
                 your shows?

                 AD: My solo acoustic shows are a great chance to get to know me and my music.
                 These settings are a great opportunity to tell the story behind the songs or even the
                 story behind why I’m playing certain cover songs. My full-band shows are high energy
                 and a hell of a good party! I think any fan of country music would appreciate both
                 settings.

                 MH: If you could go open a show for any artist, who would it be?

                 AD: I swear I would say this even if he wasn’t the biggest in the world right now, but
                 Morgan Wallen. For years I have been watching him and always thought he and his
                 crew  looked  a  lot  like  me  and  my  friends.  I  think  musically  we  would  mesh  well
                 together, and I think his crew and mine would all have a great time on the road.

                 MH: What advice would you give bands following your footsteps?

                 AD: I know social media is super lame, but it can change your life. Try different things
                 until something sticks, then push it and use it to promote yourself. It hasn’t just taken
                 me to the next level, it’s taken me at least 5-6 levels beyond where I was before. From
                 there, meet as many people as you can and take all the opportunities you can get!

                 MH: Where do you see yourself in the next few years? What's next for Austin
                 Dixon?

                 AD: At a minimum, in a supporting slot on tour with a major artist. At a maximum, I AM
                 the major artist! Ha, ha, ha!

                 MH: Austin, thank you very much for giving me this opportunity to work with
                 you on this interview you. What message do you have for your fans and friends?

                 AD: Thank you all so much for your support thus far. Let’s blow this EP up when it
                 comes out this summer!
