There's not much known about the New Dixie Demons. They are obviously very good musicians with a twisted sense of humor. They recorded for the Decca label in 1935 as the Dixie Demons and in 1936 and 1937 as the New Dixie Demons. Their repertoire included jazz and swing standards as well as their own whacky novelty compositions. Check out Hifalutin Newton's great website at westernswing78.blogspot.com for more sides of the New Dixie Demons as well as many more unreissued Western Swing rarieties.
