Description

This week on idobi Warped Radio, Peyton Grufik sits down with Dexter And The Moonrocks, the genre-defying quartet who coined their own lane with western space grunge. The band take us on a journey from their humble beginnings in Texas dive bars to their breakout hit “Couch” and the chart-dominating success of “Sad In Carolina” and “Ritalin.”

The band unpacks how their once modest goals—writing songs and paying the rent—snowballed into a full-time gig, fueled by a sonic blend of alt-country and grunge grit. They open up about personal lyrics, the fan-favorite track that still hits hardest, and why their Happy To Be Here EP marks a new chapter.

Plus, with their Warped Tour debut in Long Beach, the band reflects on the surreal full-circle moment and what it means to bring their modest attitude and crushing choruses to the pop-punk playground. From their viral Tyler Childers cover to dream collaborations and their ultimate mission to become “the best damn rock band in the world,” this is a can’t-miss episode for fans of unapologetic ambition.
