The core of rock n’ roll band Dillon Fence is the very same group of college students that formed the band in 1987 — singer/guitarist Greg Humphreys, guitarist/singer Kent Alphin, and bassist/singer Chris Goode.
Their self-released debut EP, influenced by southern jangle pop and british alternative rock, was a hit on southeastern college radio and heralded an ascendant Chapel Hill, NC music scene.
Drummer Scott Carle soon joined the band, NC-based indie label Mammoth Records released their shimmering pop rock LP Rosemary in 1992, and Dillon Fence became one of the biggest draws on the southeastern college circuit.
