Dylan LeBlanc is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who often finds himself flirting with the edge — or “dancing on a razor,” as he calls it — as it is all he has ever known. A verdict vagabond since he was a little boy tossed between Texas, Louisiana and Alabama, LeBlanc thrives on the precipice, never staying in one place for too long. In between moments of clarity and a few familiar falls, Dylan LeBlanc wrote Cautionary Tale : a collection of shimmering, arresting songs with haunting vocals and a sharpened edge honed by hastened maturity. **** in MOJO “Shocks with unexpected new ground ” **** in Q “ a great stride forward, a real sense of splendour and ambition ” 8/10 in UNCUT “A finely crafted exercise in country-soul classicism”

Not the same tradition as the lineage above — a genuinely different thread to pull, if you want one.
