Asylum 213

Asylum 213 was established in the summer of 2010 as a solo project for singer/guitarist, Dylan Lawson until it morphed into a full band in 2019. Once described as an “alt-rock wonderland” (The Auricular, 2018), Asylum 213 have taken the east coast and surrounding regions by storm, garnering notoriety for their chaotic, high-energy, jaw-dropping, and unpredictable live performances presented at every stage or living room they are booked. Asylum 213 blends elements of sludge, rok, shoegaze, alternative, mathrock, pop, trip-hop, metal, and noise in a titanic wave of aural euphoria; passionately packaged and delivered to all ears willing to listen. The songs draw from our many varied influences including science fiction and other pop culture favorites.

For fans of Kero Kro Bonito, Don Caballero, The Butthole Surfers, Anamanaguchi, Psyopus, The Smashing Pumpkins, Bukethead, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Mr. Bungle, and Tub Ring.
