About The Space Cowboys:

Dean Irons, Guitar & Vocals

At the age of 12 Dean started drumming under the tutelage of Don Land in Durham, NH. His first band, “The Firewater Band,” played southern rock, rock, and blues for their high school friends in the hang-out barn on the family rural property. In his 20’s Dean continued playing drums for “MacBeth,” a hard rock band in Portsmouth, NH—playing such venues as Rosa’s and The Ranger Club and placing as a finalist in radio station WHEB’s rock band competitions. Over the next three decades Dean played drums, rhythm, and lead guitar in several club and event bands including “Grizzly,” “Radio Flyer, “ “The Undertow,” and “Another Round.” Dean later fronted the “Dean Irons Band” and “The Crazy River Band,” as well as performed solo gigs. He has written and produced 2 CDs of original music, “Love Is” and “Second Chance,” on which he played guitar, bass, drums, and keyboards. He counts Steve Miller as one of his major influences.

In 2024, Rene returned to New England, bringing his wealth of experience and passion for music back to his roots.
