The Bard earned his apprenticeship playing in many low life, dodgy bands in shady venues across the domain. Dylan continues to be small fry in a vast ocean of talent but nevertheless in the tiny rock pool there is no bigger oyster.
Described as 'The epitome of generosity’ when it comes to giving a fine performance, his quirky poetic style verges on satirical folk as he presents a collection of mastery, wit and melody.
His material paints a rich landscape incorporating the chaos of ’the SAGA Club King’, and ‘Learning from Experience’ through to the poignant verse of ‘Fallen of the Day’,and ‘the Moorfield pit disaster.’
His songs have been broadcasted BBC Radio Lancashire, Radio Merseyside, Radio Birmingham and out on t'world wide web. Appearances include Fylde Folk Festival (including the Singer Song Writer work shops), Middlewich Folk Festival, Oswaldtwistle Folk Festivals, Pubs and Folk Clubs.
‘He ploughs a furrow of individual quirkiness’ that makes life so interesting and appealing................

Poem 2 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN
Once drove an old sedan, up north, From a place in Sydney to Cairns; Then to Kuranda I went forth, By train, to look without set plans.
I browsed through the trendy market, With fresh fruits of tropical kind; Walked to the creek through lush thicket - Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.
I dined in a scenic cafe; Then, outside, as I wrote for yen, Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey, You go walkabout with your pen.”
Request or question, I don’t know - Assured voices, elderly men. That’s now several years ago, And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.
