DON DYLAN TRIBUTE:  BIO

 

“Don Dylan” is the ultimate Bob Dylan tribute of the Midwest. This project is the brainchild of Singer Songwriter Don Puglisi who has been featured as Dylan in Esquire magazine’s photo spread, “The Fashions of Bob Dylan.” He is especially honored to have been interviewed by GQ UK magazine for an article reviewing Timothee Chalomet’s Dylan  performance in  the film “A Complete Unknown.” He also acted in the official music video of Dylan’s classic song, “Most Likely You’ll Go Your Way and I’ll Go Mine.” Puglisi’s days as a New York City TV and FILM actor prepared him for his nuanced portrayal of Dylan, not only as a singer and performer, but also as the enigmatic icon.  When asked what led to him embarking on this project, he said “ As a recording artist myself, I was resistant to doing it because I didn’t want it to take away from my own creative endeavors.  It took me a while to warm up to the idea of doing a tribute act at all. But when the guidance of my manager at Also, spending time with the songs, I felt the point of view of Dylan, which I find relatable from my own personal experience.”  A portion of the proceeds of this event  will benefit DHEO ( Detroiters Helping Each Other) a 501c Charity.  As we enter harsh the harsh weather months of fall and winter it is crucial we act now to help support our less fortunate neighbors.
