Dex Fest Honors Legend With Music

Dex Fest returns this weekend in Chapel Hill and Carrboro as a roaring, four-day tribute to the legendary Dex Romweber — the rockabilly-blues-punk icon and Flat Duo Jets co-founder who’d turn 60 this summer. With a stage presence that electrified fans and a sound that shaped legends like Jack White, Romweber’s spirit lives on in this “living memorial” festival, kicking off at Lapin Bleu and winding through Cat’s Cradle, Local 506, and The Cave — all packed with music, memories, and the unmistakable energy of a true rebel.
