Description

Twenty-one year old Dylan Triplett is a true “soul singer”, blessed with a 4 and a half octave vocal range and the ability to meld blues, R&B and jazz into a superbly soulful stew. Born and raised in St. Louis, Mo, the city that gave us Chuck Berry, Little Milton, Tina Turner and Miles Davis, Dylan showcases the influences of his predecessors on his debut album Who Is He? on VizzTone Records.

Billed as Little Dylan, he began singing at the age of 9 and started his professional career at 15, performing with his father and uncle, both seasoned jazz musicians. Grammy winning bassist and producer Larry Fulcher assembled an all-star group for this project, beginning with guitarist Dr. Wayne Goins (head of Jazz Studies at Kansas State Univ) as his co-producer. Joining them are rising blues star Christone “Kingfish” Ingram, and up to an 8 piece band on some tracks…lot’s of guitar, sax & keyboards amping up the mix.

The 10 song album features a mixture of songs written or co-written by Triplett and producer Fulcher, plus additional gems by Bill Withers, Marvin Gaye and closing with Dylan singing and scatting on Miles Davis’ classic “All Blues”. Dylan Triplett’s debut album answers the question Who Is He?
