Dylan Perkons
Dylan Perkons’ Story
Dylan Perkons is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist based in Vancouver, originally from Santa Maria, California. His songs are shaped by quiet moments, late-night thoughts, and long drives, with echoes of The National, Big Thief, Neil Young, and John Prine. Acoustic guitars and vintage synths often find their way into the same track, without ever trying to do too much. Before putting out music under his own name, he played in Mind That Bird (Montreal) and Wired to the Sky (West Coast). While working on a new batch of songs, he felt a shift. This time, it felt more personal. Letting go of past names was a natural step. Over the years, he's worked with Canadian producers and engineers like Colin Stewart, James Benjamin, David Vertesi, and Jonas Bonnetta.
