From Bedroom Demos to Global Stages: About Dylan Gossett
Hailing from Austin, Texas, Dylan Gossett’s rise has been nothing short of meteoric. Writing songs in his bedroom while working full-time, Dylan first captured global attention in late 2023 when his breakout single, "Coal," went viral. Driven by a raw acoustic guitar, a harmonica, and his raspy, soulful vocals, the track racked up hundreds of millions of streams, earned Platinum certifications, and landed on charts across the globe.
Rather than chasing polished studio pop-country, Dylan rooted his music in gritty Americana, folk, and red-dirt country traditions. Following his critically acclaimed debut EP No Opry Single and 2024's Songs in the Gravel, he went on to sell out headline tour dates across North America and Europe, sharing stages with icons like Wyatt Flores, Turnpike Troubadours, and Morgan Wallen.
Now, stepping into his debut full-length album, Ramblin' (releasing September 25th via Mercury Records/Big Loud), Dylan expands his signature sound with vivid character sketches, highway reflections, and honest songwriting that cements him as one of the most compelling young voices in roots music today.
Texas Road Trip Catch-Up: The Back 40 Tour
For those following his live shows, Dylan has been lighting up venues across the Lone Star State, from sold-out nights at Austin's Emo's and Houston's White Oak Music Hall to massive festival appearances at Willie Nelson's 4th of July Picnic and Austin City Limits. Hearing Ramblin' together in an intimate shop environment is the ultimate way to gear up for his next Texas tour run.
Space in our new location is limited, so grab your friends, bring your best energy, and let us experience Ramblin' together. See you at The Record Garage!
