“Brimming with tunes…an audacious and seriously intelligent suite of songs.” – The Irish Times
Dublin singer-songwriter Dylan Tighe’s debut album Recordwas released in 2014 to widespread acclaim. The Sunday Times declared Dylan an “exquisite songwriter,” while RTÉ proclaimed the album “starkly brilliant” and “a deeply personal and deeply moving piece of work.” Dylan also works as an actor and theatre-maker, and his stage production based on songs from Record performed at Cork Midsummer Festival and Dublin Theatre Festival was described by theIrish Independent as proposing “a new theatrical form for a new way of thinking.” A radio version for RTÉ, featuring songs from the album was nominated for the Prix Europa Prize 2013 in Berlin. He is currently working on material for his second album.
