From A Bedroom Above A Garage Coming Soon to Streaming Services
Right now you can only hear From A Bedroom Above A Garage right here on neithercoulddylan.ca because when I began recording it I realized that it was important to me that you get your first listen to a lot of these songs through me directly and in a way that best represents them. On the…

Other Music Projects
While “Acceptance” might be the debut album for Neither Could Dylan, I’ve been releasing original music for the last couple years now in different capacities. I just wanted to take a second today to share a little about those projects with you and where you can find them if you’re interested in hearing them, especially…

A Brief History of Neither Could Dylan
Sometime in the fall of 2022 I caught a post on twitter looking for original artists to feature on an internet-based radio show. They’d asked you submit a handful of songs (10 or so) with brief audio snippets introducing the tracks; the idea was to promote lesser known artists and I thought it was a…

Acceptance: Wishing Well
We’ve come to the last track on the album – Wishing Well. Lyrically Wishing Well is one I’m most proud of and it’s also one of the tracks on the album that sounds way different than when it first started. I think it’s full of cool little unexpected surprises and the lead repeating guitar line,…

Acceptance: Casual Conversation
Let’s keep it light today and just have a little chat, yea? Casual Conversation is the only track that on this album that I started the production with a riff instead of a lyric. Well, sort of. I had written the riff that you hear repeating throughout a ways back and been sitting on it…

Acceptance: Dismal
If Skeleton found us buried deep in the ground at the back of an abandoned cave, then Dismal brings with it the spirit of eager spelunkers on their first grand expedition. It was vitally important that the tone of this track carry itself with more of a carefree fresh air quality because lyrically, we’re still…
