Dixie dregs

Does the phrase mean

1. the worst part of the American South, whether it refers to people, habits, customs etc. ? (my guess)

or

2. the remnants of the Old South?

or something else?

There's no further context so I just need your views about it.

Thanks

It's just the name of a band.

Well, that is significant context that should be included in this sort of question. Yes, I agree with your guess. They are jocularly putting themselves down as poor musicians.
