It's a sound.

An attitude.

A story.

Brothers Matt and Ryan Fleener were raised in Moore, Oklahoma with music in their blood. Sons of a mechanic who had his own music dreams, and a mother who held down a job and raised a house full of boys . . .Matt and Ryan spent their youths having a band in the garage and food on the table. After years of traveling and sitting in the crowd watching their father on stage they found themselves pointed in the same direction. There was a new sound playing in the bars when the boys hit the drinking age. Red Dirt and Texas music were blaring from local dives and the two boys were caught in the crossfire. In 2001 they sold Matt's truck, threw what they had in Ryan's and moved to Nashville.

After a few years drifting through the Nashville music scene, it was in a smoky bar where they would plant the seeds for what would eventually become the Dirt Drifters. And the rest is dirt, distortion and steel guitars.
