Dylan Wilson and The Bad Times
Dylan Wilson is a bad guy.
He hates Edinburgh music. He can’t stand jazz, and funk really isn’t doing much better. Don’t even get him started on The Beatles.
A long time ago, Dylan dreamt of living in Edinburgh and getting involved in Scotland’s capital’s music scene. Today, he dreams of setting Edinburgh on fire and starting the whole thing again. This is Edinburgh Punk
Edinburgh Punk is a new musical movement about to take Edinburgh by storm. While Edinburgh Council tries to silence any real music scene, and cover bands playing the same old stuff night in, night out, punk rock anarchism is needed more than ever.
Dylan Wilson began his mission with the release of ‘Calculated’ on September 9th, 2022. Calculated was a musical riot and the first shot fired to highlight how boring and uninspired Dylan feels towards Edinburgh’s music scene. The message was heard loud and clear and saw Dylan’s profile raise higher before and saw regular airplay from Jim Gellatly and Amazing Radio.
Arran Gregory and Harry Johnson play the bass and drums in Dylan’s band. The hardest rocking rhythm section in Scotland, the trio are unlike any other group in Edinburgh. Cool, fast, and angry: these are the champions of Edinburgh Punk. When you see Dylan Wilson live, you hear real music for real people.
Edinburgh Punk is the voice of the voiceless. Music made for people who truly want to feel alive. Music made for outsiders who just want somewhere to belong. Dylan Wilson, his band, and his growing fanbase are all bad guys living in bad times. But, as one outsider once famously said: “Bad times don’t last, but bad guys do.”
