Dylan Dunlap is an internationally recognized singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist. His love for music evolved at a very young age, performing on the streets of his hometown, Los Angeles. 'What We Had' is a very specific, intentional, and transparent story about toxic masculinity, alcoholism, depression, anxiety, grief and ultimately perseverance.
Dylan developed a love for music at a very young age. At age 6, he taught himself piano to partake in a grade school talent show. At age 11, he picked up a copy of Pro Tools and crafted instrumental compositions “like time capsules”. As a teen, Dylan left the prestigious Berklee College of Music to get a head start on his music career and started busking in his hometown of Burbank, CA. Inspired by the likes of Coldplay and Mumford & Sons, he simultaneously fashioned a singular style, infusing cinematic scope and alternative eloquence into power pop.
Over the last two years, he supported OneRepublic at the sold-out Stadium of Fire event while releasing his first-ever original 'Microphones & Lights,' toured across the US and the UK, dropped his debut EP 'Things I Can’t Explain' and demonstrated a versatile songwriting prowess, writing with artists across country, hip-hop, pop and electronic genres. A few weeks ago, Dylan Dunlap released a track called ‘Seriously’. On top of his artist pursuits, Dylan has put in countless hours of work to raise awareness around mental health. In this mission, Dylan received the 'Fighting Stigma Rising Star' award from the National Alliance on Mental Illness and has partnered with Global Citizen, Autism Rocks, LA’s Children Hospital and many other organizations.
