Kurt Deimer

There’s too many people trying to tell everyone how to be today…I’m just a simple guy. I support the people that make my life better, and I try to make their lives better in return. If we all just worried about that and not everything else that we can’t control, the world would be such a better place.

Despite making his mark in the business world, Deimer didn’t feel complete – so at an age when most people start thinking about slowing down, he started to speed up. Inspired by the artists that helped shape him – Boston, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Bob Marley and AC/DC, to name just a few – he started writing song lyrics. And inspired by his love of movies and acting roles in films including the 2018 ‘Halloween’ remake and John Travolta’s ‘Trading Paint,’ he started hashing out a movie concept he had bouncing around his hyperactive brain.

To call him a Renaissance man would be a bit melodramatic, but in the few short years since – armed with an inability to take no for an answer, a drive to constantly improve his craft, and an insatiable desire to network and keep expanding his rolodex – Kurt Deimer has filmed a feature length movie aimed to launch his ‘Hellbilly Hollow’ horror franchise, recorded more than two dozen songs with legendary producer Chris Lord-Alge, whose credits include Green Day, Joe Cocker, James Brown and the Rolling Stones, and is co-managed by Andy Gould, the former manager of Rob Zombie and Guns N Roses.

Phil X & The Drills continue to record and tour and Phil finds himself fortunate and blessed to have two canvases on which to create.  From month-to-month it could be from a van, shared hotel rooms and venues holding 150 to 300 fans, to arenas, stadiums and jets.  More music and live shows are coming from Bon Jovi, The Drills and a new partnership with artist/filmmaker Kurt Deimer.
