来自挪威首都奥斯陆市的Dylan Mondegreen,实为Borge Sildnes的个人乐队,Dylan Mondegreen只是他的音乐名号。在Dylan Mondegreen成型之前,Borge Sildnes曾在挪威给一些乐队的演出里担任吉他手,而这些经历也不断的让Borge Sildnes于音乐领悟上不断的有所斩获,直到他认为自己能成为现在的Dylan Mondegreen。
从挪威迎面扑来的一股清新风,听完整张专辑也许你会依稀闻到海滩边惬意的阳光沐浴,海水在宁静中泛起点点浪花。如此惬意的创作环境,就连主唱 Borge Sildnes自己都觉得有点骄傲。联系身边的一切大自然,再全身心的投入到音乐作品中去,便成就了这道清新的挪威风。原汁原味的木吉他声在平静低缓的男声下隐约可见。时而点缀的琴声和萨克斯声更是愉悦心情的最佳疗药。短短10首歌曲更像一块梦想欢乐的播种地,越听越向往。

Life and career
Dylan Mondegreen (born Børge Sildnes) is a Norwegian singer and songwriter.His debut album, ‘While I Walk You Home’, was released in his native country on 17 September 2007.
The second album, ‘The World Spins On’, was released in 2009. The album was released by Division Records in Norway, Universal Records in the Philippines, Fastcut Records in Japan and Pastel Music in Korea.
Mondegreen released his third and self-titled album in September 2012. Shelflife Records released the album in the United States. AllMusic gave it 4,5/5 stars and called it "a quiet masterpiece ... flawlessly written and performed, and produced with uncommon skill and grace - it's likely one of the best singer/songwriter records of 2012, and most any year that came before". The album was co-produced and mixed by Ian Catt, best known for his work with Saint Etienne.
Mondegreen has played shows in the United States, the United Kingdom, China, Japan, Italy and Norway. He has featured in articles in Pitchfork, ‘NME’, ‘Under The Radar’, ‘Spin’ and more.
The surname is based on Lady Mondegreen, a character of myth and legend. Jon Carroll, columnist for the ‘San Francisco Chronicle’, periodically runs a story which gives the truth about "Mondegreen". A mondegreen is a mishearing of the lyrics of popular songs. The name itself comes from Carroll's mishearing of a line in a song from his youth, about a valiant man who villains killed "and laid him on the green". He heard this as "Lady Mondegreen". American writer, Sylvia Wright, coined the term in her essay "The Death of Lady Mondegreen," published in ‘Harper's Magazine’ in November 1954.
His latest album, ‘Every Little Step’ was released in April 2016. Tim Sendra from AllMusic declared "It's a wonderfully truthful and human record that serves as another compelling bit of evidence in favor of declaring Sildnes one of the best indie pop singer/songwriters around".
