AYODYLAN RELEASES ‘DELUX’ EP
South Florida-based pop-punker AyoDylan releases DELUX, the follow-up EP to April release Knuckle Head.
DELUX continues the momentum of Knuckle Head, channeling the spirit of early pop-punk through a modern, deeply personal lens packed with pop-culture references and nostalgic callbacks. Beneath the high-energy hooks, however, lies a striking vulnerability. On “Tonight’s Biggest Loser,” AyoDylan masks the heartbreak of losing the girl of his dreams behind animated lyrics and clever references. Meanwhile, “Not 27 Yet” finds Dylan at his most reflective as he questions, “Will my fans still love me if I sing everything that I could say? Will they still cheer my name if I say nothing when I’m onstage?” As the EP progresses, the tracks become slower and more solemn, trading explosive pop-punk for an introspective atmosphere that gives fans a glimpse into the emotional weight behind Dylan’s sharp wit.
“This EP is my sound refined. I’m going deeper into topics that I’ve wanted to cover and making this project as meaningful as possible while keeping it fun,” explains Dylan. “It’s swag era with guitars. I would love for people to walk away from this feeling like they have been heard. The topics are ones we all think about but never say. I’m saying the quiet parts out loud.The EP starts out with high energy, lots of witty bars, upbeat tempo and slowly transitions song after song to a somber soft nostalgic vibe almost seamlessly. It sort of takes you through the experience of a party being over.”

Knuckle Head served as the electrifying follow-up to 2025’s Betty White EP. The EP’s four tracks blend playful irreverence with earnest vulnerability, capturing the chaos of chasing dreams, growing up too fast, and refusing to minimize yourself for the comfort of others. The result is a sound that feels nostalgic yet forward-leaning, built for shout-along choruses, mosh pits, and anyone who still believes in going all-in.
Last month, AyoDylan hit the road on a tour supporting Nathan James, performing the moshable, high-energy songs off of the EP. Shortly after, he took the stage in West Palm Beach for his first hometown headlining show.
AyoDylan combines hard-hitting pop-punk music with Gen-Z nostalgia and an inspiring message for fans. Coming up from South Florida, AyoDylan inspires fans all over the world to chase their dreams with the same wonder and enthusiasm they had as kids. His debut EP, Betty White, continues to climb and win hearts over, amassing over one million streams, with his social media content gaining over 50 million views within the past year. With no intention of slowing down, AyoDylan’s infectious sound is quickly worming its way into everyone’s mind.
Furthermore, he recently launched both a podcast and intimate live sessions on his YouTube channel, where he performs both original and stripped-down versions of fan-favorite tracks and giving viewers a deeper look into his life and artistry. Fans can watch the videos HERE.
