Dylan Cox, 25, is a singer and songwriter from Los Angeles, California and who lives in Paris, France. His music blends aching lyricim and room-filling melodies into deeply personal and poetic indie folk ballads. In March of 2021, he released his first single, Animals In The Kitchen, produced and engineered by the mega talented Abe Rounds (drummer for Meshell Ndegeocello, Blake Mills and Pino Palladino, Andrew Bird, among many others). Produced again by Abe along with coproducer and singer-songwriter Sarah Walk, he recorded his first EP in Los Angeles, spring of 2021. Featuring musicians like Jake Sherman (keys for Nick Hakim), Alan Hampton (Andrew Bird) on double bass, and Mateo Vermot on electric guitar, "A Place to Meet" is an artfully arranged debut EP. It is an ode to the language of music: its possibility to express joy, loss, and love.
 
Cox's music takes inspiration from his upbringing as a young professional surfer in California, a complicated youth, his time studying philosophy and literature at Berkeley, and his many adventures living abroad, especially in France. Since 2019, Cox has spent half of his time in residence and working at La Villa Magnan, a once-abandoned castle in the Basque Country, in the south-west of France. When not tending to farm animals and the staff duties of the bed-and-breakfast, he amassed the songs that would comprise the EP to be released December 1st. He currently lives and performs in Paris.
