Mike Campbell and The Dirty Knobs Booking Agency Profile
Mike Campbell left Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers after more than 20 years as their lead guitarist, starting a side band called the Dirty Knobs. He waited nearly another 20 years before recording and distributing their music. The Dirty Knobs' debut album, Wreckless Abandon, has rowdy rock & roll with a ragged but correct feel. Campbell and his bandmates started with the anthemic sound of his work with the Heartbreakers and added the influence of classic '60s and '70s sounds as well as a dash of blues.
Campbell frequently collaborated as a guitarist and songwriter during his intervals away from the Heartbreakers, including Don Henley, Stevie Nicks, Randy Newman, John Prine and Johnny Cash. Campbell gave the Dirty Knobs top priority after Petty passed away and they started mapping out ideas for an album. Following the release of the song "Wreckless Abandon," they had their debut LP finished and intended to release it in March of the following year, followed by a concert tour.
The Dirty Knobs produced their second album over the course of three weeks, this time collaborating with co-producer George Drakoulias. The Dirty Knobs' musical range was expanded with the release of External Combustion, which also featured cameo appearances by Ian Hunter and Margo Price and relied more heavily on overdubs and '60s pop techniques. .
