Musician Dylan Garcia, A Good Guy On The Horizon By Anthony Ewart
T
here are many Good Guys who have lived. We’ve read about them in history books, biographies and autobiographies. I define Good Guys as generous and self-less. A man concerned with helping others as he helps himself. A men genuinely happy to see people he knows succeed in life. A Good Guy is a man who respects women, the way Dylan Garcia respects his wife and Queen, Gabriela. A Good Guy respects himself and most importantly, other cultures. By these standards Dylan Garcia is a Good Guy, and an amazing singer/ musician on the rise. Dylan’s musical style has gone through many phases. He began with a love for Hip-Hop and R&B, and expanded to Rock and Spanish Rock, like icon Carlos Santana. The first songs Dylan wrote were love songs about a recent heartbreak. He taught himself to play guitar and was ready to start singing his blues. Of course he played many styles of music, but Dylan’s lyrics were always poignant and poetic. It was the multiple Grammy winning (5 times) Venezuelan producer Kenny O’Brien who gave Dylan his first name, because he reminded him of legendary songwriter Bob Dylan. From the very beginning of Dylan’s career he had an eye for recognizing
talent in others. He began hosting his own Hip-Hop shows at clubs in his hometown of Oxnard, CA, featuring himself and other rappers and bands. Dylan has a catalogue of almost one hundred songs written, and with all the talented musicians he knew decided to start his own record label: KOALA DRIVE, LLC
At his recent sold out performance at the Whiskey a Go Go on Sunset Blvd., Dylan demonstrated why he’s known as an incredible performer with a huge heart. The performance was dedicated to his late brother, and had a theme of mental health awareness. Some of Dylan’s albums have been titled “GOOD KARMA,” “REFLECTIONS OF MY IMPERFECTIONS" & #relationshipgoals. Dylan Garcia is a special human being sharing positive light and creating positive music. Not surprisingly, Dylan is a wave rider. He finds peace on the ocean, contemplating his life and the lives of others. You may find him early one morning if you’re on the beach. Don’t worry if you see him on the horizon surfing a huge wave. He’s protected by the Universe. He’s a Good Guy.
