Hayseed Dixie ( English hayseed = "Hinterwäldler, Landei" or hay-seed = "hay seeds") is an American band that was founded in October 2000 as "A Hillbilly Tribute to AC / DC " and has cover versions of Plays hard rock songs in a musical mix of bluegrass and rock . The sense of humor is evident in the choice of the band name, which alludes to "AC / DC". The band has since recorded a large number of their own songs and re-interpretations of well-known rock songs.
