Dabbs spends his days writing songs, "write a song a day and if it's not good, throw it away," is the advice Neil Young personally gave him. Last year, he released Decade Fades, his third album, on vinyl only. His music has been featured on television shows, "The O.C.," "The Hills," "October Road" and the new film "Nothing But the Truth" with Kate Beckinsale. He's shared the stage with Josh Rouse, Joseph Arthur and R.E.M.
