Dylan Holland

Singer, songwriter and guitarist Dylan Holland was born in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1994. Dylan lives with his parents in Owensville, Ohio, a small Cincinnati suburb situated approximately 20 miles northeast of the Queen City. Although he has played guitar his entire life, he began honing his craft by posting self-made videos on Youtube and performing to his dedicated fans, who coined themselves “The Deezy Army”, on Blog-TV in early 2010. During his rise in popularity, Dylan tried out and won the first ever “Teen Hoot” contest in Nashville, Tennessee where he met David Malloy, a Grammy nominated singer, songwriter and producer. With help from Malloy, Dylan recorded his first three songs “I Call You Love”, “Kiss Me” and “Nashville”. Although Dylan wrote the first two songs before being introduced to the Teen Hoot and Malloy, the third cut in the series “Nashville” was written by Holland out of inspiration he attained during his first appearance at the Nashville “Teen Hoot”. All songs were produced by Malloy in Nashville, TN. Dylan travels, with his parents, to Nashville, TN frequently for appearances and to support the Nashville Hootenanny’s “Teen Hoot”. In November 2011, Dylan was recognized in an article published by Pop Star Magazine (New York, NY) where he was described in the article as being the “Next teen mega crush”. Although his genre is categorized as “pop”, his songs are inspired by many genres including rock, rap, country, and R&B. Many artists fuel his inspiration such as: Aerosmith, Michael Jackson, Justin Bieber, Jason Mraz, Cody Simpson, Garth Brooks, Chris Brown, JAY-Z and Adele. Dylan has also performed locally in Cincinnati in support of the homeless and Pencil’s for Promise. He is also an advocate for the humane treatment of animals, as well as the National Anti-Bullying Campaign. Dylan continues to perform weekly on the Blog-TV platform to keep in touch with his fans and elicit their feedback, keeping ever true to his motto, “Fans First”.
