An introduction...

The latest in a long line of quirky anti-folk ingenues, including Beck, Adam Green and Jeffrey Lewis, Dibs applies that time-honored tradition of off-beat songwriting to his own private world of sugar factories, laundry baskets and ducks. With a low voice, both sweet and deadpan, and a guitar-style both virtuosic and sloppy, Dibson Hoffweiler carves out a space of compassion and intelligence in a landscape of boring love songs and thinly-veiled songwriterly misogyny.
A biography...

Known for his work in anti-folk flagship bands Cheese On Bread, Huggabroomstik and Urban Barnyard, Dibs began his cultural life as an anonymous Moldy Peaches fan. But, after a stint working the soundboard at the Sidewalk Cafe, and two years generating buzz with his old band, Dibs & Sara, this Jersey boy established himself as a musical force in his own right. After several months touring Europe and North America, Dibs has proved (to himself, and to others) that his bizarre, ramshackle aesthetic is palatable outside the freaky comfort zone of New York anti-folk.
