Dashiel Rowland is a multi-instrumentalist, songwriter & producer, who is aspiring to a career as a film and television composer. He’s explored classical, blues, jazz, R&B, hip-hop, electronic and pop music. After finishing high school in Akron, he attended Loyola University in New Orleans to study music business. He’s currently based in Brooklyn, New York, doing nonprofit activist work by day and working in his home studio on his own time. That led to his latest release, a six-track EP called when the day is done, last year, featuring material headed been working on over several years.
When Rowland comes home to Akron for the holidays, he likes to share what he’s been working on, and once again, he’s booked a performance at Akron Civic Theatre’s intimate cabaret space, Wild Oscar’s. And once again, he’ll be joined by his friend Avery Green, a jazz/rock/electronic music composer/producer/multi-instrumentalist from the Greater Cincinnati area.
“For this performance,” they share, they’ll “will move fluidly across instruments from song to song—keys, vocals, drums, guitar, and synths—sometimes trading roles, sometimes blending them, and occasionally weaving live track elements into the set. The music will span jazz-inflected experimental rap, electronic and ambient explorations, soulful ballads, and high-energy percussive pieces. Some moments will be sparse and intimate; others explosive, improvised, and rhythmically adventurous.”
