Seeing Green

The Gabe Dixon Band walks the green walk at home and on the road. Read about their first steps here...

Our good friend and brilliant bandleader and pianist Gabe Dixon has a guest blog on BLURT magazine's blog.

We couldn't be happier to be at the beginning of Gabe's green journey because what has followed is a testament to the power of taking first steps, no matter how small they may seem.

The band all recycle; we have sworn off little plastic water bottles, bring our own bags to the grocery store, and our own coffee mugs to the coffee shop. I get that it can seem like a lot. Most of us are not scientists or politicians, but I believe that individual actions add up. We all cannot afford a "green" house or a hybrid car, but every day brings opportunities for sustainable living and a chance to develop new habits that will soon become a normal way of life. I'm not perfect, but I do try and take steps in the right direction. It's an ongoing process.

Read the full article here, and take a listen to their new album here -- it's brilliant, fun, deep with equal parts grand and small moments -- and the CD packaging is as minimal as possible so as to reduce it and the band's carbon footprint, so that's cool!
