In 2009 we lost our dear friend and band mate, our founding member and bass player, Dean Turner. The sense of loss and the pain has not diminished in any way and we carry his memory with us always, and everywhere in whatever we do, but it is not the grief and sadness that we want to share, because Dean was a bright and beautiful man that always tried to bring light and joy to the world. So today we want to express our gratitude and love for him, and for the gifts that he imparted to us with his friendship. His love for the music that is Magic Dirt, his drive and persistence in the face of difficulty, his passion and patience, his love of Australian artists, the championing of anything different, special, unique and underrepresented, his rooting for the underdog, and his integrity as a human being and a musician. Those are the things he taught us and we would not be who we are without them.
We miss Dean more than ever, but we are so happy that his music continues to give people joy and happiness, so now when we play and look out to the crowd, we see Dean’s love and music radiating out, still touching people, still beating, rockin’ and snarlin’, it’s really, really hard sometimes but mostly it’s a massive overwhelming rush.
Thank you Dean for your love, warmth and friendship, we miss you and always will.
Dirtbags xoxo
