This week’s hottest brand new act…

Dylan

KEY TRACK: Sour Milk
LABEL: Khaos Records
MANAGEMENT: Grumpy Old Management
FACEBOOK: @iamdylanofficial

WHO: Dylan (real name Natasha Woods) is a new UK singer signed up with Grumpy Old Management, home to popular musician Ed Sheeran. Nice place to start...

WHAT? There’s not much information out there, but Dylan’s Facebook page says the 19-year-old is a “self-proclaimed, out and proud ‘indie fuck’ with the voice of a bruised, toughened angel”.

WHERE? Like Ed, Dylan is from Suffolk, where she began writing music at school and recorded her first song (early tracks included Bad Bitches and Drinking About You) last Easter during A Level revision.

A SONGWRITER CALLED DYLAN...

Most Google search results for ‘Dylan’ pertain to Bob, but his namesake seems primed for big things. With CAA behind her, Dylan organised a series of Klub Khaos gigs in London and has supported L Devine and Rudimental.

WHAT’S THE MUSIC LIKE?

Post-Lorde pop, if that’s a thing. If you like Lauv’s murky songs, you’ll love this.

SOUNDS PERFECT FOR 2019!

Pretty much, yes. Look out for the Purple EP, due on October 25.
