Biography
Sloan Struble, recording under the Dayglow moniker, shapes buoyant indie pop from his Texas base through layered guitar work and immediate hooks. His first album, the home-recorded Fuzzybrain, surfaced independently in 2018 and quickly spread online, resulting in an Austin City Limits Music Festival booking, a subsequent label reissue, and widespread notice across independent outlets. Momentum continued with the 2021 release Harmony House, followed in 2022 by People in Motion, both of which accumulated millions of streams and earned slots at Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo. After inking a deal with Mercury, Struble delivered his first major-label project, the melodically bright Dayglow, in 2024.
Raised in Aledo near Fort Worth, Struble first experimented with recording at age ten after a friend introduced him to GarageBand. Limited local musicians prompted him to master several instruments himself, and he spent his high-school years tracking songs alone in his bedroom while absorbing influences that ranged from Phoenix to James Taylor. Upon departing for the University of Texas at Austin in 2018, he issued Fuzzybrain under the Dayglow name. The track “Can I Call You Tonight?” helped it gain traction within bedroom-pop circles and on streaming services, where plays reached the millions. Balancing freshman coursework with rising demand, he performed at SXSW and Austin City Limits Music Festival and joined COIN on tour. In 2019 Acrophase Records of Nashville gave Fuzzybrain a physical edition on vinyl and cassette.
The rhythm-oriented single “Close to You,” carrying clear 1980s echoes, appeared in early 2021 as the opening preview of Harmony House. October 2022 brought the self-produced People in Motion, whose buoyant singles “Deep End” and “Then It All Goes Away” included the latter’s number-20 peak on Billboard’s Adult Alternative Airplay chart. Struble then moved to Mercury, whose first Dayglow offering was the 2024 single “Every Little Thing I Say I Do.” Follow-up cut “Cocoon” preceded the September 2024 self-titled album, which Struble wrote, produced, and recorded entirely on his own and which sustained the project’s energetic, affirmative tone.
