Dylan Owen is an 19-year-old independent hip-hop artist based out of Orange County, NY. His story reads similar to many indie-
rappers’, as he began freestyling in middle school and after building a name for himself through battling, started writing songs.
Dylan’s subject matter ranges widely, from examining his small-town complex to the joys and troubles of being young to the
purpose of concepts such as age and time. It carries many recurring motifs, symbols, and teenage imagery, and while it may

Dylan Owen is an 19-year-old independent hip-hop artist based out of Orange County, NY. His story reads similar to many indie-

Dylan’s subject matter ranges widely, from examining his small-town complex to the joys and troubles of being young to the
purpose of concepts such as age and time. It carries many recurring motifs, symbols, and teenage imagery, and while it may
largely reflect the writer within the artist, his music is relatable and catchy. Early in high school, Dylan began composing his own
solo work and recording with jazz producer Devin Arne, writing with an acoustic-rap duo “Pros and Converse,” and building his
identity within the local indie-music scene. These pursuits carried over into the release of his debut EP with Devin Arne in 2008,
A Living Inverse EP. In the summer of 2009, Dylan released his second project with Devin Arne, How to Stay Young EP, which
Dylan co-produced after learning guitar and slight piano. While his first EP reflects a troubled, abstracted view on life, How To
Stay Young is a more optimistic and hopeful record, and has garnered much more public attention. Now in summer 2010, Dylan is
releasing his first full-length album, entitled Senioritis. It is his biggest release to date, featuring popular guest artists such as
Mac Lethal, Symmetry, DJ Prime, Jesse Denaro, and A-Game. It is available on iTunes, Cdbaby, Amazon, Napster, and elsewhere
(and of course, at shows) as of July 3rd. « hide |
