About Dillon Warneck

Dillon Warnek is a Nashville-based songwriter. In his earlier days, he played guitar and piano for artists like Courtney Marie Andrews, Brent Cowles, and whoever else had a van and a meager itinerary.

His suitcase filled with songs after years of playing clubs and stealing pens from waitresses, he left his sideman days behind him to sing his own. He got close with Margo Price and her band in Australia, and tricked them into backing him on his debut record, “Now That It’s All Over.”  

Concerning Dillon’s songs, Margo said, “He has a sharp wit and a writing style that seems both familiar and foreign at the same time. He is a songwriter’s songwriter, and some of his songs are too smart for the general population.” The record got passed around and Joe Hudak wrote for Rolling Stone, “Dillon Warnek brings tales of everyday waitresses, repentant convicts, and unrepentant grifters to vibrant life. Con men are a favorite writing subject of the Nashville transplant. There are no scams here, however; just Warnek’s rich, detailed character studies infused with elements of rock, country, and even Tex-Mex.”

With these characters as his travel companions, Dillon plays his songs anywhere that will have him, and is wrapping up writing his next record.

He may need a bigger suitcase.
