Originally
from Brazil, singer-songwriter and musician Dillon grew up in
Cologne, Germany, before eventually relocating to Berlin at the age
of 18. Born Dominique Dillon de Byington on April 29, 1988, the
self-taught pianist released her debut single C
Unseen Sea on
the Berlin label Kitty-Yo. After a collaboration with Cologne-based,
electronic-pop duo COMA in 2011, Dillon would go on to release her
debut album This
Silence Kills,
on techno-label BPitch Control, run by Berlin DJ Ellen Allien. The
album was critically received, with positive reviews from the
Berliner Zeitung, the BBC, and other leading media outlets. Dillon
followed up the release with the 2014 record, The
Unknown,
an album which saw her further expand into a melancholic, electronic,
folk sound. After 2016’s live recording, Live
at Haus der Berliner Festspiele,
Dillon released the 2017 album Kind
on
[PIAS] Recordings, which also featured Tocotronic’s Dirk von
Lowtzow. Throughout her career, Dillon has graced the line-ups of
many leading festivals including Melt!, Reeperbahn Festival, and The
Great Escape, in addition to countless headline appearances across
the globe.
