Dylan Atlantis

She/they

Dylan Atlantis is a Filipino-Australian singer-songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist from Western Sydney.

Sonically, Dylan fuses the grit of grunge and indie rock with the sweet soulfulness of r’n’b - adjacent to works by Syd from The Internet, Deb Never and Dylan cites N.E.R.D. and Yves Tumor as musical influences. Dylan is also a member of the Full Circle collective, a crew of future superstars consisting of Sollyy, Nick Ward, Friday*, Breakfast Road & Zion Garcia. 

Moving from the Philippines to Australia at an early age, Dylan started playing guitar at 7, writing songs at 12 and after watching Youtube tutorials in high school taught herself to play piano, bass and music production. 

Dylan released debut single ‘Sum1 Else’ in 2019 (which to date has over 600k+ streams) and has since independently released multiple singles and projects. Her May 2023 debut EP, ‘Violet’ has propelled her into industry attention. Over the past 18 months, Dylan has been heralded by VICE as having “the tellings of an influential up-and-comer in Australia'', named FBi Radio’s ‘Independent Artist Of The Week’, and heavily supported by triple j, posting about them via their multiple social media channels, with presenter Abby Butler commenting “There's no wondering why folks in Sydney (and beyond!) are excited about you, Dylan. This is world class”. ‘Violet’ EP was nominated as ‘Record Of The Year’ at the 2023 FBi SMAC Awards.

Dylan has started gaining international attention from US tastemakers Assorted Tapes and Pitchfork, the latter naming collaboration with fellow Western Sydney creative Sollyy as “the must-hear rap song of the day”.This heralds the first time Pitchfork have covered artists from Western Sydney. 

Dylan’s on stage presence and reputation as a performer led to being hand-picked to support an impressive list of notable acts, including Royel Otis (AUS), serpentwithfeet (US), Phony Ppl (US), Sorry (UK), Superego (AUS), Agung Mango (AUS). A stand out at SXSW’s inaugural Sydney conference, Dylan was chosen to perform at events by globally respected brands Vans and Dr Martens.
