Dexys come by their dramatic and ever-evolving sound and approach naturally, seeing as they are a revamped version of Kevin Rowland's epochal 1980s group Dexys Midnight Runners. Beginning with their 2012 debut album, One Day I'm Going to Soar, the band pulled together strands of soul music, Irish folk, new wave, and rambling rock, then topped the resulting brew with a healthy dollop of Rowland's one-of-a-kind vocals and his unsparing lyrics. The group's take on Irish classic and pop standards on Let the Record Show: Dexys Do Irish and Country Soul showed off Rowland's skills as an interpreter, then 2023's The Feminine Divine explored his relationships with women and sex with funk and R&B influences added to the mix.
