Backstage At 3rd, Big Damn Music Jam Texas Takeover featuring Bryan Sanford, Kyle Garrett, Payton Riley, Tristan Roberson, Ty Smith, Dylan Rhys, Bubba Westly, Caleb Young, Chloee Rae, Celeste Marie Wilson, John Dempsey, Jenni Dale Lord & Tasman Sharp

Recently featured as an artist on the rise by Texas Country Music Magazine, Dylan Rhys is already making waves as a standout in the next generation of Texas musicians. At just 15, his charismatic stage presence, confident songwriting, and strong vocals have earned him the opportunity to open for numerous regional artists, and share the stage in renowned venues such as Dosey Doe – The Big Barn and The Kenney Store.

Inspired by artists such as Shane Smith and the Saints and the Turnpike Troubadours, and with a sound reminiscent of Sam Barber and Wyatt Flores, Dylan can be found most weekends playing venues across central and southeast Texas sharing his original songs as a deep list of country covers. His debut single, “Solid Ground,” released in late 2024, kicking off what promises to be an exciting career.
