Details:
Dylan Ward grew up in southwest Virginia, but the Appalachian bluegrass and redneck alt-country of the area must be relegated to a distant influence on his music. Recently, he has listened to far too much Wilco and Grateful Dead for anyone's good, and he regularly covers tunes by both bands.

His own music works grungy guitars and 90's alternative hooks together with singer-songwriter stylings, filtered through the senses of someone who has listened to too much classic rock. His impressionistic imagery-based songwriting is rarely literal, and contains more than touch of the surreal.

Airport Weather mostly revolves around the demise of a relationship, but this familiar theme is interwoven with thoughts of leaving home, pulling all-nighters, and the abstract images that come when strung out on endless airplane rides.

The album was recorded solo, but Dylan is currently putting together a lineup of rockers to play shows in the Boulder area. Meanwhile, he likes to play acoustic guitar loudly, sweat up a stink, and belt out tunes that most would reserve for a full-band situation with drums and electric guitars.
