  • “The Knobs churn out a more raw [sound]…, bringing in some of the muddiness of Neil Young’s grunge.” —The Guardian
  • Mike Campbell, best known for playing guitar with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, joins The Dirty Knobs for a second album. Their last album, Wreckless Abandon, was Campbell’s first album as the group’s leader. Their sophomore album, External Combustion, is set to release on March 4, 2022. This new album unveils the group’s evolution in their genre and as a band. Campbell states that after they began to write External Combustion, it started to flow and became almost intuitive. 

    To kick off their first national tour and upcoming second album, the band released a sneak peek single, “Wicked Mind”. With sounds familiar to garage-rock, Mike Campbell & The Dirty Knobs’ new single is anything but ordinary.
