# Dylan Scott
**Dylan Scott** (born Dylan Scott Robinson, 1990) is an American country singer and songwriter from Bastrop, Louisiana, signed to [Curb Records](https://www.edgepedia.org/curb-records), known for a deep baritone drawl and a run of Country Airplay hits led by the triple-Platinum "My Girl."[1](https://www.allmusic.com/artist/dylan-scott-mn0003281059) • [2](https://dylanscottcountry.com/pages/about) He performs in the contemporary country and country-pop genres; Mark Deming of AllMusic characterized his music as bro-country-pop whose charm calls [Luke Bryan](https://www.edgepedia.org/luke-bryan) to mind, seasoned with a bit of the R&B-flavored rhythms associated with [Sam Hunt](https://www.edgepedia.org/sam-hunt).[1](https://www.allmusic.com/artist/dylan-scott-mn0003281059)

## Early life and signing
Scott grew up in rural northeastern Louisiana, about 15 minutes from Bastrop, the nearest small town.[7](https://www.holler.country/feature/interview/cuts-the-deepest-dylan-scott/) Music ran in the family: his father, Scotty Robinson, played guitar on the road for [Freddy Fender](https://www.edgepedia.org/freddy-fender), Freddie Hart, and other country singers, and Dylan learned instruments as a child.[1](https://www.allmusic.com/artist/dylan-scott-mn0003281059) • [7](https://www.holler.country/feature/interview/cuts-the-deepest-dylan-scott/) A formative influence was the music of [Keith Whitley](https://www.edgepedia.org/keith-whitley), who died in 1989, more than a year before Scott was born; Scott has said hearing Whitley's "Between an Old Memory and Me" and "I'm No Stranger to the Rain" on the radio is what drew him to music.[7](https://www.holler.country/feature/interview/cuts-the-deepest-dylan-scott/)
At 17 he recorded a four-song demo with songwriter and producer Charlie Craig, which brought him to the attention of Curb Records; he signed with the label just before turning 19.[1](https://www.allmusic.com/artist/dylan-scott-mn0003281059) After moving to Nashville, his most important mentor became Jim Ed Norman, the producer and label executive who serves as Chief Creative Advisor for Curb.[8](https://music.wmeagency.com/Music/dylanscott)
