From one side of Bass Strait to the other, Teresa Dixon writes and plays gritty alt country & folk songs of love, loss and hope. Based in the Huon Valley Tasmania, Dixon’s music tells stories of the healing power of nature, place and reflection with some self-deprecating songs about drinking and failed love thrown into the mix. Her albums Bass Strait and Way Down South showcase her gravelly, honest voice and multi-instrumental talents on guitar, banjo, mandolin and piano.
Teresa has played many of the country’s major folk festivals as a soloist and member of trad country-folk trio The Stragglers and convict folk punk outfit The Dead Maggies. She has appeared solo and/or with her band ‘Teresa Dixon & The Deep Blue Sea’ at many of Tasmania's ecectic festivals, including The Huon Valley Mid-Winter Festival, Dark Mofo, Pangaea, Cygnet Folk Festival, Adventure Bay Blues and Roots Festival and HOBOFOPO. She has played support for some of Australia’s premier artists such as CW Stoneking, The Black Sorrows, Mia Dyson, Lee Kernaghan & Mick Thomas. First starting out in her home city of Melbourne, Teresa has now toured nationally and played in most major cities in Australia, however she thrives in intimate venues that foster storytelling where she can best share her art.
