Texas Singer-Songwriter Dylan Gossett, known for his authentic country sound, announces his U.K. and Europe headline tour, making stops in Glasgow, Manchester, London and more, as well as festival performances at Heartland and Black Deer.
Tour news follows Gossett's triumphant sold-out shows in Dublin and London last week, his first ever headline shows. Gossett's journey from posting songs online to critical acclaim is remarkable. His debut single 'To Be Free', entirely self-written, recorded, produced, and mixed in his bedroom, along with his breakout hit 'Coal', has earned him over 150 million global streams and Gold certificates in multiple countries, making him one of country musicâs most exciting breakthrough artists.
Dylan Gossett is a 24-year-old singer-songwriter from Austin, TX. Dylan began writing and recording music during his early teen years using Garage Band on his mother's computer. Throughout high school, college at Texas A&M, and a job at Formula 1 Racing, music remained Dylanâs true passion.
Inspired to finally release music by a new generation of singer-songwriters he saw emerging online, Dylan began posting videos of his songs in April 2023 â immediately, his music struck a chord with a global audience. Dylan released his first single 'To Be Free' in June 2023. Shortly thereafter, he teased a snippet of what would become his next song and breakout viral hit 'Coal'. The video instantly took off, gaining over a million views within the first week.
Since its release, 'Coal' has garnered over 150 million global streams, received Gold Certifications in the US, Canada, and Australia, debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US and the Official Singles Chart Top 100 in the UK, reached the Top 5 on the Country Radio Chart in Australia, and continues to climb the Spotify US Top 200. The New York Times called 'Coal' âone of the yearâs best country songs,â while Billboard argued that âCoalâ and âTo Be Freeâ "position Gossett as a formidable, heart-on-his-sleeve singer-songwriter with immense potential.â
In October 2023, Dylan released his highly anticipated debut EP No Better Time (also self- written, recorded, produced and mixed in his bedroom) via Big Loud Texas / Mercury Records. The EP received a slew of critical acclaim from The New York Times, Billboard, Country Central and more.
This spring heâs set to embark on his first-ever headline tour, dubbed the No Better Time Tour, across cities in North America and in London and Dublin â which sold-out immediately upon on-sale. He also recently supported Noah Kahan in arenas across Australia and Morgan Wallen at Houstonâs Minute Maid Park, as well as opened for Wyatt Flores and Brent Cobb on their fall 2023 tours. This year, Dylan will be making his festival debuts at SXSW, Hangout Music Festival, Tortuga Music Festival, Two Step Inn Festival, and more to be announced.
