DIXIE PEACH
DIXIE PEACH was born in London and has been singing from the age of nine. In his teens DIXIE got involved more in music as a MC and selector with YOUNG LION SOUND and eventually built his own sound system with his brother and friends called KILLERWATT SOUND, and produced a special track for the sound called PURE WORRIES. A producer by name of JAH TUBBYS from east london heard the track and approached DIXIE about releasing the track. Once released, people said that he has a very distinctive voice, and PURE WORRIES hit the charts in 1984. This started the ball rolling, as it was the beginning of an impressive series of hit tunes. To present, DIXIE PEACH has been a main voice for JAH TUBBYS and voiced riddimsin collaboration with countless other producers and sound systems.
