Dylan John Thomas: New Music and Tour

Dylan John Thomas (Blossom Grace)

Scotland’s next songwriting talent Dylan John Thomas has released his new single Yesterday Is Gone and announced details of a November UK headline tour. Yesterday Is Gone is the first new music from Dylan this year and is taken from sessions for his forthcoming debut album, the details of which will be announced soon. Following dates at Reading and Leeds Festivals this August, the November national headline tour includes 2 further nights at Glasgow’s Barrowland Ballroom. Demand for those shows is sure to be high after he sold-out 3 shows at the venue during 2022.

Dylan’s career might be in its embryonic stages, but he’s already an artist’s artist. Gerry Cinnamon has offered his support from the very beginning while Dylan has also been invited to support the likes of Liam Gallagher, Sam Fender, Stereophonics and, most recently, DMA’S on their UK national tour.

Dylan has received fantastic reactions at recent festival appearances; including a main stage set at TRNSMT, and performances at Neighbourhood and Glastonbury. He has also picked up airplay at Radio 1, BBC Introducing, 6 Music and Radio X. Last year Dylan was awarded the prestigious Breakthrough Artist of the Year at the Scottish Music Awards. A landmark moment was selling out Glasgow’s famous King Tut’s Wah Wah Hut quicker than any other debuting Scottish artist.

With a reputation already built through tribute work and years of live performance, Liam Price arrived at this London headline show carrying both momentum and curiosity. What followed was a night that felt less like a tentative introduction and more like a defining moment — a confident step forward that suggested this chapter of Price’s career is only just beginning.
