Press "If degrees were based on talent, Gilbert just might have that doctorate." - Jeff Hahne
Creative Loafing Magazine, Charlotte NC


"Gilbert’s junior effort, The Quiet Life, is further proof of his remarkable ability to not only write great songs but to also produce and execute them as well...Gilbert’s ability for songwriting is one of the strongest around and at the mere age of 20, the future knows no limits for this up and coming artist."
-Matthew Godbey
South Eastern Performer Magazine


Dylan Gilbert is immensely talented...his stage presence is electric and engaging . He'll talk to the crowed, unabashed and everything but shy, He'll move about the stage playing guitar and singing far from the microphone. The emotion he gives is powerful enough that the microphone seems unnecessary."
-Josh Spilker
Bootleg Magazine, Wilmington NC


"Gilbert is a fantastic songwriter and musician. He's one of those "leave it on the stage" performers who dives into his own world and isn't afraid to break out feedback and effects on an acoustic guitar."
-Jeff Hahne
Creative Loafing, Charlotte NC


"North Carolina indie-folk musician Dylan Gilbert is nothing short of brilliant."
-Stephanie Boscovitch
It! Magazine, Fredericksburg VA


"If this kid is already writing music like this now — combining pop, jazz, folk and British experimental rock — I can’t imagine what sort of innovations he has planned for the future."
-Heather MacIntyre
Yes Weekly, Greensboro NC


"He really has something exquisite to say and does so with sophistication and skill that escapes the banality of crushed velvet musicians who barely eclipse their own novelty. The songs on The Quiet Life sound full, far grander than previous albums, notably 'No Mystery' which is Springsteen by way of a mid-seventies carnival"
-Brian Tucker
Bootleg Magazine, Wilmington NC


“Both romantic and realist, Gilberts young mind shows wisdom beyond his years. At nineteen, he already showcases what promises to be a rockin career in music. An amazing talent, he has nowhere to go but up....Dylans early display of maturity as a singer, songwriter, and guitarist has only to age like the fine Bordeaux that he is, and the world will be drunk, buzzing about him soon.”
-Rogosich
The Raleigh Hatchet, Raleigh NC


"The excellence of Gilbert’s compositions is fueled by the maturity of his songwriting. A poet at heart, Gilbert is a bard capturing the times. His writing can be thought-provoking, inscrutable at times, while maintaining a broadness that allows it to be accessible to everyone. It is a hard balance to maintain, and Gilbert does it masterfully."
-Donald E. Quist.
The Morning News, Florence SC


“Offering both beautiful music and lyrics, anyone who appreciates music could enjoy listening to what I consider to be Gilbert's masterpiece.”
-Leigha Hougland
The Salisbury Post, Salisbury NC


“Gilbert writes pop gems with a mastery that is far beyond his years.”
-Flagpole Magazine, Athens GA

"he pushes your contemporary ideals of music and its sounds."
-Bobby Bowers BigSmileMagazine.com

"There is little more that can be said. Dylan Gilbert is easily one of the finest song-writers that I have come across in recent years."
-Josh Hogan
IndependentClauses.com


"This whole album should be in heavy rotation on every college radio station."
-Diana
75orless.com


"Gilbert creates a unique mix that he can proudly call his own."
-Spencer
My Crazy Music Blog


"The Quiet Life is the soundtrack that follows your trips back home, from the car ride and diner stops to the midnight coffee runs and everything else along the way. When you get to the last track, "Please Repeat," you'll want to do just that."
-Jamie
Vinyl-Visions.BlogSpot.com


"The Future looks awfully bright for this young man."
-Jason James
South Eastern Performer Magazine


“I'm not ready to anoint him the New Dylan just yet, but rest assured that this Dylan's the real deal nonetheless. What's in a name? A lot, it seems."
–Timothy C. Davis
Creative Loafing Magazine, Charlotte NC


"It's here that his message and the fuss behind this whole "quiet life" come into sharp focus: It's not a sound. It's a concept for obtaining peace of mind, and for finding out how to grow older without losing yourself, all the while trying to discover what "yourself" truly entails."
-Kyle Rosko
The Independent Weekly


"He has a jazzy indie folk sound which is curiously striking and just flat out good stuff."
-Tyler TheAlbumProject.net

Hello !


It makes a long time I have not been on your page. How are you?
I have a question: Would you be so kind as to sign my guestbook on www.erick.book.fr (after you have seen my new pictures there)
No account required, no login, and it will take you only 2 minutes.
Would you do that for me ?
Thanks a lot!
