North Minneapolis alternative singer-songwriter Dan Hylton is a purveyor of the fine art of Craft Pop.
With inspiration drawn from college rock songcraft of the mid 90s and harmony-laden, multi-textured arrangements, the former 44 frontman’s approach is earnest and playful, catchy and evocative. In recordings and performances, he evokes a presence that is disarming and yet possesses a gravity of energy and emotion. Think Morrissey mixed with Wings. Or a slightly offbeat Swell Season. Hylton is now fronting newly-formed The Ghostrunners following the August 2012 release of his EP, The Secret of HIM." Craft Pop. Brewed in Small Batches. |
