Dylan Trees


My best friend Jodi has been in a band for a little while now called Dylan Trees. While I was in LA, I had the opportunity to sit in on one of their rehearsals...they even let me join in on tambourine! They just started booking dates around the LA area. Check out their music here.

"Dylan Trees is a Los Angeles based collective of likeminded musicians centred around British singer-songwriter Jeremy Simon. Some days it’s one man and a ukulele. Other days it’s a room full of girls and boys hitting the same cymbal and humming four-part harmony. It sounds both ancient and modern. The Charlie Horse EP was self-released in early 2008. Produced by Charles Newman (Magnetic Fields), it is a righteous cacophony of classic British psych-folk with distinct undertones of Americana. Dylan Trees are playing all over the Los Angeles area in forthcoming weeks. Come and see them hit that cymbal. If you like, you can join in."
