In a few short years, Dylan Sinclair has gone from a precocious songwriter and singer to a fully formed frontman. His debut, For the Boy in Me, feels like an album by an artist who’s been primed and poised for success from the very start. Mix in booming, soulful production from the likes of Jordon Manswell and vocals that call back to the golden era of R&B, and the result is a coming of age album that goes down like honey. Sinclair’s own songwriting is heartfelt, unguarded, and dosed with the necessary amount of schmaltz. Are real lovers back? If Sinclair has anything to say about it, they will be.
