Fuelled by an intense passion for songwriting and music-making, DILAN SKIES has recently unveiled an impressively long and luscious album, a slice of mainstream goodness wrapped in meaningful, catchy lyricism and evocative melodies. Titled ‘TO BE SEEN’, the record marks the arrival point of a journey that lasted just over a year, with SKIES having unfurled single after single across last and this year.
What should you expect from ‘TO BE SEEN’? Certainly pure unfiltered pop euphoria. Boldly evocative and romantically haunting, the record delves into familiar storytelling and personal theming, with DILAN’s potent songwriting exploring human behaviours in all its facets. SKIES’ vocals are a joy to listen to, sporting a malleable, magnetic tone that’s a joy to listen to.
Based in London, the British-Indian creative appears to have reached his best shape yet, and we suspect ‘TO BE SEEN’ is just the beginning. Speaking about the inspiration behind the album, he explains: “This album has always meant more than just a collection of songs. Across these tracks, I’ve reached a new level with my music, being deeply involved in shaping the sound and sitting in on production sessions with a small circle of people I trust.”
