There’s a surprising immediacy in Dylan Keith‘s musical material. His songs are relatable and friendly, instantly connecting with the listener in a positive way. Someone might say they are sort of simple, but the truth is very far from it. To craft a powerful pop song, one must figure out how. It is easier to write a long, complex piece than to keep it short, punchy and meaningful. Keith seems to have mastered the art of storytelling, drawing us into his evocative gems with surprising easiness.
‘Ten White Eyes’ is the strongest evidence of that: exploring human nature as a metaphor for societal shortcomings, the track builds a charming storyline with the help of Keith’s evocative and dynamic vocals, the perfect companion to the soulful and guitar-based production. Inspired by the like of Frank Ocean, Bon Iver, Mac Miller and Rick Rubin, Dylan has been working on a unique sound that reflects that ethos.
Having debuted only last year, Keith seems to already be building up a fantastic career, fully showcasing his musical prowess. Of course, he is not doing it alone, having talented peeps by his side. ‘Ten White Eyes’ was produced by Cooper Anderson and recorded in Boulder, Colorado.
