Vov Dylan

Vov Dylan is an Australian-born violinist. He holds the title of "World's Fastest Violinist", has multiple albums distributed globally by Ambition Entertainment, and tours throughout Australia and the globe with his own show "Beyond the Danube".

Vov Dylan is a third generation musician. Grandparents Fred and Beryl Elsley were both pianists, and father Evan Elsley is also a violinist. Born with the name Wodzislaw Dylan Elsley, this was rapidly shrunk to Vov Dylan Elsley by the time of going to school, and then adopted the performing name of Vov Dylan in the year 1998. He started his musical training at the age of 21 months -where he was then in constant demand with appearances on recordings, TV and concert stages. He was also the recipient of a music scholarship to Newington College.

Dylan started to gain more widespread recognition in 2004 when he formed his first orchestra, and started to headline shows in the NSW club circuit. His light classical shows started to sell out venues and he soon found himself with an orchestra that was growing, and full performance diary. In 2007 he started his first studio album "The Affair" and this was coupled with a series of overseas tours. In January 2014 he took the world record for "Fastest Violinist" whilst performing The Flight If The Bumblebee in 38.1 seconds. In 2015 Dylan started a partnership with Ambition Entertainment which saw his albums gain international distribution.
