Teaming with his brother Howard, Dorsey became well-known in the Carolinas as part of the country duo. They were underrecorded, but Dorsey's "Wreck on the Highway" became a standard through Roy Acuff's recording. Babies in the Mill contains a few songs that Dixon recorded during the '30s, balanced by some re-recordings from the '60s, offering a solid overview of his career.

Dorsey Dixon was born on October 14, 1897 in Darlington, South Carolina. He was one of seven children, all of whom, together with their father, worked at the local textile mill, Darlington Cotton Manufacturing Company. Dixon left school at the age of twelve to start working at the mill; his younger brother Howard started at the age of ten, and their sister Nancy began working there as a spinner at the age of eight. Dixon's family and friends encouraged homemade music and he quickly picked up the traditional and sentimental songs they sang. The Dixon Brothers Vol. 3: Early Sacred Songs.
