Simply Dylan delivers the songs of Bob Dylan with no attempt to imitate or impersonate the prodigious songwriter, instead the band focus on the bringing Dylan’s lyrics and clever storytelling alive with a joyous and exuberant sound.

From a modest project which sold out the famous Cavern Club 6 times, the band have gone on to receive fantastic reviews from the Spanish Press, impressing Dylan fans from across the UK, and opening up the IOW Festival 2019 performing on the Big Top Stage.

The band lead by frontman John O’Connell, formerly of Groundpig, have gained a reputation for performing some of Dylan’s more challenging songs. No ordinary interpretation, this is a remarkable and exceptional project which promises to delight Dylan fans young and old and to ignite a new wave of passion for one of the world’s most prodigious songwriters.

…a show that every Bob Dylan fan should see!” Louder Than War
