🥀Dryboy, an artist hailing from Chicago and now based in LA, has carved a niche for himself in the music scene by weaving a captivating, enigmatic sound infused with elements of Pop, Rock, and Alternative Hip-Hop. His sonic tapestry draws inspiration from the musical musings of acclaimed artists such as Clairo, Gus Dapperton, Trippie Redd, and Juice WRLD. Dryboy's artistic journey began with a childhood steeped in dance, heavily influenced by the hip-hop dance crew, the Jabberwockies, and the Step Up film series. However, his evolution was inevitable as he ventured into the realms of beat-making and freestyling, experimenting with “type beats” on YouTube. “It paved the way for creating the music that I like dancing to so much”, he says. His eclectic musical style owes much to his parents. His father's passion for classic rock music exposed him to its timeless allure, while his mother introduced him to a diverse array of sounds, including Mexican Corridos. From the rhythms of reggaeton to the melodic storytelling of Billy Joel, Dryboy's musical influences know no bounds. Describing his music as “hopelessly romantic”, Dryboy writes intimate tales of relationships, drawing on the experiences of the people in his life as well as his own. He finds beauty in the act of sharing these deeply personal stories, an ethos that underpins his creative process. 🥀
