SubSuburbia (pt.4)

Dan Lyons

Dan Lyons is a Margate based musician and songwriter. Through vivid imagery rarely seen in song, he can tell stories in earnest. Musical influences range from The Go Betweens to Radiohead all the way to Leonard Cohen and Serge Gainsbourg whilst his work remains something only Dan Lyons, with his unique worldview and experience could produce. ‘‘If music was scholarly then Dan would hail from that of Bob Dylan and Lou Reed. His lyrics are commanding, both piquant and hard-hitting. In another life, he’d find himself living amongst the Beatniks of New York’s Greenwich Village or living rent-free as a poet in Paris’ Shakespeare & Co.” - Clash Magazine
