Born at the end of the 20th century dEXTER have developed into the greatest unsigned musical talent around today. The music embodies much diversity moving from rock through heavy ballsy pop to intricate ballads and acoustic arrangements. The music knows no boundaries and will definitely not be pigeon holed although it still has a distinctive dEXTER quality and sound about it.

Music is built completely on emotion says Paul the songwriter and one of the pioneers of the dEXTER sound. The whole point is to write and play what you like whilst being creative. Differing situations require different musical attachments. People nearly always associate a song that they like with a particular time or event in their lives that's the power of music. My music straddles a wide range of styles and the most important thing is that a song has some meaning to the listener. We don't all like the same things in life so why would we all like the same sort of music.
The bands influences are too numerous to mention. If it's good it can be an influence.

Live Performance by dEXTER is energetic and professional, mastered through many live performances around the UK and London club circuit.

The current line up is 2 Guitars, Bass Drums and Sax. Previous incarnations have been 3 piece power guitars up to 9 piece will full brass.

Paul formed his first band 'Who Cares' in late 89. They went on to play every club within the London scene these included;- The Marquee, The Mean Fiddler and The Rock Garden, intercepted with a tour of the North East of England.

They signed a management and record deal in 95 with Gilt Edged Music and released the much-acclaimed E.P Sweet Jane; this accompanied radio interviews and national press for promotional purposes.

The band changed to 'The Collective' before settling on the name dEXTER.
With the name change came a new musical style and 2 residencies in London where a hardcore following was developed. The material covers many genres within popular music. With a catalogue of over 100 songs the band have the luxury of being able to tailor their sets to any audience.
They signed their 2nd Management deal in 1998 with db Management. Further gigs followed until a new deal was signed with TKC management in 2002.

November 2004 gave then their first television appearance on the BBC promoting Set Me Free. This was coupled with numerous radio and press interviews.

2005 will see the development of new material and a driven marketing campaign by the management team.

From the ballsy 'Set Me Free' to the catchiness of 'Say What You Want' to the poignant 'Always With Me' the band can move from hard guitar driven popsters to intricate balladeers. They do not pigeon hole themselves into a musical type, they play what comes naturally. To some people this appears to be inconsistency, but to anyone worthy of an opinion it's versatility.

With over 500 live performances dEXTER have learnt the art of stagecraft and winning over any crowd. The only thing awaiting them is total recognition of their talent.
