Single—Shut Your Mouth

On Friday, LA-based R&B artist Dylan Reese released a new single titled Shut Your Mouth. This dynamic ballad explores a deep love that shouldn’t require words because the actions have sufficiently affirmed someones place in your life. A familiar conversation from the moment it hits your ears. What elevates this record are the harmony stacks woven throughout the fabric of the lyrics. The nostalgia brings us back to everything we love about R&B.

The video that accompanies the record is a single-scene visual, where Dylan paces back and forth attempting to articulate his frustration with making his other half understand his non-verbal commitment. The frame is also covered in warm hues, giving his lyrics a tint of passion. What’s even more impressive is that Dylan filmed and edited the video himself on an iPhone. Simple, yet effective. You can check out the video here.

Shut Your Mouth is sure to set the tone for the full length project. Make sure you check out the snippet below and follow Dylan on socials & steaming platforms to stay in the know for future releases.
