Armed with just a guitar and mic, Dylan Wilson (aka King Lazy Eye from Middle TN) stabs the listener straight in the heart with his relatable, unfiltered melancholy, sung with a southern Tennessee twang, filling intimate spaces with his soul-scraping delivery and bittersweet melodies about pain, addiction, and yearning for escape.
Think if Randy Travis was in Brand New, or Merle Haggard cut an EP with the Misfits.
Despite only a handful of official releases, King Lazy Eye’s music has grown a loyal following, deeply impacting his listeners experiencing difficult times and similar struggles. He has reached over 1.4M streams on his 2022 single “Loaded Guns” and thousands of monthly listeners on Spotify.
He has taken the internet by storm with nearly 8M likes and 1/2M followers on TikTok. He has also had the opportunity to perform, record, and write with artists like Charlie Holt from Rainbow Kitten Surprise as well as Josiah and The Bonnevilles, amongst others.
Now with a band and team behind him, Dylan and King Lazy Eye are preparing to share their story with the world as they work on a bunch of new recordings and hit the road on tour.
