Background:
Born to a jazz musician, Dylan learned to play piano before he could walk. He played clubs starting at the age of 10, and has been going ever since. When he was 16 he was accepted to Julliard, but only lasted a year, it was too structured for him, and he believed music should be anything but.

He got a record contract at the age of 20 and is a popular, critically acclaimed artist. He specializes in jazz-funk, with a bit of rock and roll thrown in.

He is a guest teacher at Dumont, often doing master classes in lieu of lecture.

Special Abilities: He can play piano, saxophone (both tenor and bass), trumpet, violin and guitar.
