“Captain Dave is a dreamer and a fearless innovator, a visionary of high order, very delicately tractable on the surface but beneath that, he’s a slamming, thumping, battering ram, very mystical but rational and sensitive when it comes to the hot irons of art forms. An explosive musician, a deft guitar player, innately recognizes the genius in other people and puts it into play without being manipulative.“ ~ Bob Dylan

Dave Stewart, Rock'N'Roll Hall Of Famer, Songwriter Hall Of Famer, Eurythmics co-founder, producer, and renowned songwriter, has announced the album “Dave Does Dylan“. Set as a limited edition vinyl release for Record Store Day, the 14 song homage to Bob Dylan will be available at indie record stores on Saturday, April 12th, 2025, via Surfdog Records.

Featuring just Stewart on vocals and guitars recorded in one take, the album finds him performing seemingly inspired renditions of Dylan’s songs. Stewart is also set to tape an episode of “Recorded Live at Analog” on March 22nd, 2025, at Analog inside The Hutton Hotel in Nashville. He’ll perform songs from the album with the addition of strings, pedal steel guitar, and keys. The show will air on PBS in July.
