Born in Shreveport, Dylan moved to Muscle Shoals, Alabama when he was 11 and he is the dark horse of the vibrant and close-knit musical community there that includes Alabama Shakes, Secret Sisters, and Civil Wars to name a few.
Dylan's songs however, are considerably darker than that of his Alabama counterparts. He says 'I wasn't conscious of a theme before I made it - I didn't mean to, but I just happen to base a lot of my work on emotions - and at the time, they just happened to be negative ones.'
