Details:
Dewey Paul Band is the current solo music project from Dewey Decibel System founder, Dewey Paul Moffitt. Dewey is not only recognized for his backstage production work and audio engineering in today's live concert business, but is also highly respected among his peers as a hard working performing musician and singer-songwriter.

In the early 1990s, he set up the dressing rooms at Grateful Dead shows for the legendary concert promoter Bill Graham. By the mid 1990s he was producing large-scale music festivals with friends in Gainesville, Florida. He continued his festival work on the road sound engineering for many major country artists touring from coast to coast. Since the late 1990's, Dewey has been production managing and sound engineering around Denver, Colorado. From his festival direction work for Denver's LODO Music and Blues & Bones Festivals to his production managing and audio engineering at the Bluebird, Ogden, Gothic, and Oriental Theaters as well as six years of audio engineering at Denver's Pepsi Center Arena, he has contributed a respectable amount of work throughout the Colorado region. In 2004, Dewey set out on tour again as audio engineer with Chicago's soulful R&B outfit, Sonia Dada.

All the while, Dewey's passion for songwriting and performing has never wained. He managed to release 5 CDs with Dewey Decibel System from 1995 to 2006. He sits in on local All-star jams whenever possible. He has participated as a guest musician on 4 annual reenactments of The Band's famous Last Waltz concert. He also produces an annual charity event which celebrates the songs of Bob Dylan while benefiting music in Denver area schools programs. More than 80 Denver area musicians have participated in that annual charity event along with legendary Jerry Garcia Band keyboardist Melvin Seals. That event actually gave rise to a touring All-Star Bob Dylan cover group, Dylan66, which Dewey founded and performs with.

Along with the obvious influences of Bob Dylan, and (the) Grateful Dead, Dewey cites Van Morrison, Jackson Browne, J.J. Cale, and Todd Rundgren as his main musical sources of inspiration. With his artistic passion being derived from living a well-traveled life on the road, he manages to blend those experiences with his expertise in the acoustic sciences resulting in his own unique style of introspective songwriting. He draws much of this inspiration from his past experiences of bohemian living, to personal relationships and the common struggles of the everyday human condition.

Dewey was born a fourth generation native of Coshocton, Ohio, but has since adopted many a few additional hometowns throughout his journey such as Boca Raton, Florida, Oakland, California, Gainesville, Florida, New Orleans, Louisiana, Lawrence, Kansas and most recently Denver, Colorado.
