    Matt "D" Dynan, is a native to St. Paul, MN. He has been playing guitar for 20 years and songwriting for 11 years. Although he started spending time in the studio 10 years ago recording songs, he will be putting out his debut album on july 15th. “The Majestic Sands of Time”, includes songs written over a decade ago to songs written in the last few years. “The Majestic Sands of Time” is a thematic album in that all the tracks have something to do with Spirituality.

    Matt initially picked up guitar, to try and be like the blues legend Stevie Ray Vaughn. After about 8 years of real effort, he discovered he had a better knack for songwriting, and from that point on he insisted it was best to try to become the best songwriter he could be, leaving his dreams of being Stevie behind.

    Once he started writing songs he started looking closer at those who already were established songwriters. Some of his favorite include: Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Ben Harper, Tom Petty, John Prine, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, and Jack Johnson. Just like most people, he has a much longer list of songwriters and bands that he truly loves.

    Matt can go country, blues, rock, and pop, but folk is what he says is most in his soul. Perhaps his greatest achievement is that he has found a way to incorporate meaningful and insightful lyrics into his songs that have the potential to help people to overcome the suffering that can be so common in life.

lyrics

“John’s Poem”
Lyrics by “John”
Music and arrangement by Matt Dynan

We see the world and all its anguish and despair
So we create our own worlds, worlds in which
We do the things that we like to do
And you do the things you like to do
And I’ll do the things I like to do.

To me you are a shooting star, I can’t reach
A lily I can’t touch, a honey I can’t taste
And your beauty is such
That I’ll never be able to hold a candle to it
And you do the things you like to do
And I’ll do the things that I like to do.

If everyone was like you, there would be no wars
Or evil, or starvation, cause if everyone was like you
This world would be so perfect, it would be utopian in itself
In fact its inner beauty would far outshine its outer beauty
And you do the things that you like to do
And I’ll do the things I like to do.

Give me the wisdom of an owl, the courage of a lion
The strength of a Grizzly Bear, the sensitivity of a daisy
And let me return all these assets from the deepest depths of my heart
And you do the things you like to do
And I’ll do the things I like to do.
