Artist History Amidst the eclectic fashions of music, Dustin Shey is one of those artists whose music clings to your soul. Bringing new meaning to the acoustic arena, Dustin exemplifies the true nature of the singer/songwriter. With songs closely resounding John Mayer, Dashboard Confessional and Tony Lucca, Dustin displays an array of deep, pensive, heart-taking lyrics interwoven with simple yet catchy guitar riffs. Packaged beneath his words are the messages that convey every facet of life. From self-evaluation to finding the uniqueness in the elderly, to how one copes with death, Dustin's lyrics are designed sink in. A theme throughout is the idea of always changing, always bettering ones self. In Windows he sings, "He caught me, staring out my window again, searching for a change. Cause this place is a prison cell that my own life has created." Here With Me delves into the emotions in losing a loved one. "This is how we grow. This is how I know. You could, catch me when I fall. Cause I can't, deal with this at all. You could, be right by my side listening. Just stay here with me." It's the connection with the audience that Dustin lives for. With songwriting as his avenue to express hope in this life, he hopes to challenge every ear to listen, search and live.
