Dylan has been recognized regionally throughout northern California on several occasions. Nominated for 3 SAMMIE Music Awards, countless web features, press releases & Interviews (Including Sacramento News & Review, KCRA channel 3's Raw TV, Good Day Sacramento & More) for his personal and professional endeavors. After releasing his first internationally published & digitally distributed E.P. (Authentic Originality) through UL Sounds (LLC) launching his career in 2015 & co-headlining in front of 2200+ at firstfestivalsacramento.com Dylan cohesively organized a competition for his most driven peers generating over 2 million hashtag impressions during the websites beta launch,making other locals visible. Along with his many innovative ideas Dylan Phillip has a unique and very versatile sound that few can match, ranging in such diverse dynamics, unafraid to attack at any tempo format or style. Balancing today’s current sound with real content and a message for the masses has become a regular thing. Ignoring the cliches, focusing on pieces that are fun but educational, the goal is to teach with music and bless others financially if ever self sustainable.Going through an entire career with no financial contributors, sponsors, mentors or even management can be deteriorating to an artist although giving up does not get you these things either. Born into an economically challenged household life has been about effort enthusiasm + perseverance in the self perpetuating systems of debt society has enabled upon us. Nevertheless with a growing audience of 70,000+ according to (Niche.com) and the willingness to give each person the time of day we may be starting to see a snowball effect taking place.
