Dylan - 'Girl Of Your Dreams'

Pop-rock artist DYLAN pitches herself as the ‘Girl Of Your Dreams’ in her highly anticipated new single.

The Suffolk-born singer-songwriter released her first song ‘Sour Milk’ in 2019. Since then, DYLAN has brought out 3 EPs, with the latest being her ‘No Romeo EP’, which features the hit track ‘Nineteen’, and has gained over 40 million Spotify streams. With recognitions from Dork, Clash, and Notion, the 22-year-old has received support from a variety of music platforms. This year alone, DYLAN has toured with Bastille, Tate McRae, and recently Ed Sheeran, where she has been playing her new single ‘Girl Of Your Dreams’ in stadiums across the UK.

The much-awaited track gained widespread attention even before its release, after a clip of the song went viral on TikTok and amassed over 1 million views. DYLAN describes how the concept for ‘Girl Of Your Dreams’ came from the frustration of wanting someone to like her back, as she pitches herself as the ideal girlfriend. The song combines catchy guitar hooks and steady drum beats with DYLAN’s impressive vocal range, to create a feel-good summer anthem that is perfect for festival season. The studio version of Girl Of Your Dreams was premiered on BBC Radio 1 on 13th July, just ahead of its release, after being selected as Jack Saunders’ ‘Power Play’.

With various festival appearances over the summer, her sold-out UK tour in November, and a headline show scheduled for 20th February 2023 at Shepherd’s Bush Empire, it seems that DYLAN has a lot of plans for the coming months.
