Before he was collaborating on EDM hits with Demi Lovato and Fetty Wap, Trevor Dahl was making music on his own terms. With the rapid rise of Cheat Codes with bandmates Kevin Ford and Matthew Russell, the trio has also made it a priority to also focus on their own creative endeavors. Going by his surname “Dahl”, this is a project parallel to Cheat Codes, but returning to his solo roots. With a hybrid of influences from electropop acts like Bazzi and Lauv, alongside the lyricism of John Mayer, Dahl reveals his talent for being a jack of all trades: he wrote, produced and mixed all of his music. “I’m the only person touching the songs from start to finish, which is rare,” says Dahl. Signed to Atlantic Records at 17. For the next five years, he toured the country, even writing songs for other major label artists. By 21, he left Atlantic Records to pursue electronic music, which led him to Cheat Codes. While “Dahl” will be a departure from Cheat Codes’ music, there will be hints of the act’s sound embedded in his solo work, but this project is the most candid the now 25-year-old musician has ever gotten, detailing everything from him growing up, to his two serious relationships to dropping out of high school, “It’s about letting people know everything about me on a level I’ve never opened up on,” he says. Dahl’s music will blend genres from electro-pop and indie-rock to hip-hop.
