Singer-Songwriter
Dylan O’Byrne
Hailing from New Jersey, 29-year-old singer-songwriter Dylan O’Byrne is currently crafting his debut album while gearing up for a busy year of live performances. A true Garden State native, he's a multi-talented artist adept at piano, guitar, and vocals, drawing inspiration from the rich musical heritage of his home state, as well as various other artists in the genres of pop, folk, and rock.
Dylan’s repertoire of songs covers a variety of genres, making him well suited to tailor any set list to the needs of the venue. Below is a sample of different songs that illustrate his vocal range, types of songs he can cover, as well as different performance settings.
Dylan, who has always been a bit of a storyteller thanks to his Irish-born father, uses music to tell his stories and those of others in a more "shareable" way. Using songs as the structure of storytelling is great for someone who is known to say, "It's a long story, but I'll make it short," and then proceeds to tell a story that could rival a Netflix binging session. Whether through his originals or his unique covers, his emotive vocals leave audiences captivated during his live performances, granting them a deeper connection not just with the rhythm of the music, but also with a profound understanding of the lyrics.
As he embarks on this thrilling musical voyage, it's unmistakable that this New Jersey native is poised to leave an indelible mark on the music industry, one harmonious note at a time.

Apart from his personal music, Dylan has also been a strong advocate for developing the love and creation of music and the arts in his community. Serving as a Trustee to a NJ Board of Education during 2021-2023, he aided in the development of a new auditorium. This initiative stands poised to elevate the community's capacity to nurture and showcase the talents of musicians and actors, for years to come.
