Hello

Hello, and thanks for checking out my site! My name is Dylan Allen and I live in Tulsa, OK with my beautiful wife Lexi.  We both graduated from the University of Tulsa where I studied economics and finance, and Lexi studied international business and Spanish.

Music

You can listen to some of my music on the Music page.  I play the guitar (acoustic, flamenco, classical, and a little electric and bass) as well as hand percussion. The Cajon is my preferred hand percussion instrument which you may not be familiar with. It is a wooden box that you sit on while you play. I use it in our flamenco group Reflejos Flamencos in which my wife is the dancer (a dang good dancer at that), and her Dad is the guitarist.

I am also a singer/songwriter/guitarist for Sounds Like Life which includes my friend Rhiannon Leach who sings along with me, Kaymen Pitts on bass, and Terr Horton on drums. We are working on our first EP right now.  The songs on the sidebar are what I have so far.  All of my music is produced in my home studio.

Web Design

I host and manage a few web sites such as this one.  Below is a list and brief description of each site:

Johnny Beard Store – E-commerce site that sells handcrafted fireplace bellows made by my Father-in-law’s local manufacturing business.

Reflejos Flamencos – Informational site for our flamenco family trio.  This was recently re-done as a blog to make it more interactive and easier to add quick updates.

Johnny Beard Company – informational site for a manufacturing business.  I am working on an e-commerce store for this site that will hopefully be up soon.

Agora Coffee House – A blog for a local coffee shop.

Sounds Like Life – This is set up as a sub-domain to this site and is a separate blog for my acoustic music group.

If you are interested in website design services, shoot me an e-mail and we can get started on your site!  I also do a graphic design, so if you are looking to have a flyer, business card or other print media designed, let me know.
