Episode 49: DAX CALLNER - Song writer, singer and lead guitarist for band: Super Jelly.

The Suffolk Pod Show

You’ll love this podcast episode if you like rock music, electronica and a great story or two! In the 1980s the rock band Twisted Sister had a hit record called ‘We’re Not Gonna Take It’ and at the age of 13, Dax was ‘that kid’ in the video - and to this day Dax is still great friends with lead singer Dee Snider – he says Dee has been an inspiration for his work since then.
We play a couple of clips of Super Jelly's songs from their New Album, launching soon

Dax Callner and his wife Amanda moved from New York to Bury St Edmund's to initially house-sit in late 2018. They both fell in love with the town and decided to make it their permanent home. He tells us about their happy move but also talks about few pitfalls of plugging in his instruments that were set on US voltage not the UK!

Super Jelly formed in early 2019. Five musicians make up this original band and they produce soulful, vibrant music touching several genres including classic rock, punk and jazz rhythms. They play and perform their own original songs with the occasional cover. You can listen to a few clips in this episode.

Dax has his own electronica / cinematic produced music - ‘Daxc’ and with influences from LCD Sound System and Peter Gabriel a clip of the track ‘The Backend’ is played in this podcast episode.

Dax’s second passion in life is his position working with ‘Smile’ an event marketing company. Their philosophy is ‘Doing Well by Doing Good’ and champion responsible marketing.

Dax also shares some funny comparisons between living in the UK to the US!

The Super Jelly new album comes out very soon so follow Dax and Super Jelly on their Facebook page: @wearesuperjelly
