August 2009
In early January 2006, adorned in poor-fitting, borrowed business casual, Dylan Sneed slumped in a cubicle of a cold office building in downtown Dallas, TX. Over his short but painful tenure in the machine of corporate America he learned many lessons, but one prevailed above the rest: this was not where he was supposed to spend the rest of his life.
Four years and over 50,000 miles later, Dylan has become a full-fledged road warrior, and recognized as an "A-list tunesmith" (Darryl Smyers, Dallas Observer). The Dallas Observer also praised his 2007 EP No Worse For The Wear as “one of the best local releases of the year.”
After escaping his corporate confines he began booking national tours the grassroots way, making friends and fans one at a time across the country. On the last day of August in 2008 he packed his few remaining possessions in his car and set off on his last tour as a Dallas resident. He called the tour "Texodus," and kicked it off with a synonymous event that featured 9 of his closest musical compatriots from the Dallas/Fort Worth area. Next came three weeks of shows along the way to Hartsville, South Carolina, the small southern town where Dylan finally unpacked and set up his new home base.
Dylan has also toured as an electric guitarist with Brian Vander Ark (The Verve Pipe) and award-winning Texas songwriter Kristy Kruger.
