But really…who the f*ck IS D.K. Lyons?

D.K. told his mother when he was 5 years old, “One day I’m going to be a rock star.”

In the two decades since then, he’s been writing songs at an incredible rate, beginning with simple titles, moving to titles + lyrics, and eventually picking up a guitar and learning the ways of production. 1,500+ songs later, he’s finally learned 1,400 ways to not write a song.

But all of that experience in failure has led him to today, an artist grounded with a unique style and voice, ready to take over the airwaves. Born in Massachusetts and based in Manhattan, 2020 saw D.K. release his debut album to rave reviews and over 25K organic Spotify streams.

In 2021, he kicked off a new era with Vandalism, a collection of songs about the emotional vandalism that humans inflict upon each other, some destructive and some beautiful. Featuring the anthemic Summer Lullabies and the critical Poster Child that calls out systemic sexual abuse in the music industry, the 6-song set is a forceful step forward for Lyons establishing himself as a standout songwriter, producer and musician.

In 2022, D.K. debuted his newest era with a string of successful singles into 2023, including When We Were Falling In Love, Where Do All the Sad Girls Go?, Everything is Wonderful, and Fake Ray-Bans, amassing over 100K streams across his new releases. 2024 will see D.K. release his sophomore album + companion film with his eyes set on continuing to grow his profile as one of the hottest up and coming artists in NYC .

Above all else, D.K. likes to dance. He likes to be bold. But he also values humility and authenticity, never bending or compromising his artistic integrity.

Among the many things that drive D.K.’s relentless passion and need to write and create music, catharsis tops the list. And wherever and whenever you listen, his hope is that you feel something too.
