Gossett schedules new EP for March release

Friday, March 1, 2024 – Dylan Gossett will release his new EP, "Songs In The Gravel," on March 22 via Big Loud Texas / Mercury Records.

The EP features his recently released single "Bitter Winds," as well as his latest offering "Somewhere Between," which is already out.

Gossett, a 23-year-old Texas native, said, "I wrote 'Somewhere Between' after watching a video about a man who spent his life living on a train. I was struck by his story and his true independence. I wanted to create my own version of his story. The resulting song is a high-energy narrative about a wandering man, running away from his past, traveling state-to-state; each night finding a new home."

"Songs In The Gravel" is the follow-up project to Gossett's 2023 debut EP "No Better Time." Written, recorded, produced, and mixed by Gossett in his bedroom, the EP includes his single "Coal." The song is now Certified Gold in the US, Canada,and Australia.

Gossett recently wrapped his first-ever Australian tour supporting Noah Kahan and also performed his debut headline shows in London and Dublin, Ireland.

He will embark on his headline tour "No Better Time Tour," this spring. The tour will make stops in various cities including Chicago, Washington, D.C., New York, Atlanta and Nashville. This spring, he will also make his first festival appearances at SXSW in Austin, Tortuga Music Festival in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. and open for Midland on select dates.

Growing up in Austin, Gossett first picked up a guitar in middle school, teaching himself via YouTube and thanks to tips from his big brother. In between listening to classics from Alan Jackson, George Strait, Journey, the Eagles, Scorpions and Boston with his family, he immersed himself in the records by Turnpike Troubadours, Flatland Cavalry, and Cody Johnson. Throughout his college years at Texas A&M University, he continued playing and singing.

Passionate about Formula 1, Gossett took a job with Circuit of the Americas. In spring 2023, he began experimenting with posting his music online. He shared a rendition of The Lumineers' "Ophelia" and eventually wound up gaining traction with a cover of Flatland Cavalry. He gained more attention with his independent debut single "To Be Free."

CD reviews for Dylan Gossett

CD review - Songs in the Gravel Given the short turnaround time between Dylan Gossett's debut EP, "No Better Time," released in October 2023, and"Songs in the Gravel," his new EP released in March 2024, it would be easy to think of those two collections as one debut album parsed out in increments. However, the gains Gossett makes on "Songs in the Gravel" reveal this four-song set is more of an evolution than a continuation. Gossett, a young Austin-based singer/songwriter, became a true ...
