Career

Dines worked as a recording engineer before pursuing YouTube full time. [2] He started his YouTube channel to promote his band, They Charge Like Warriors, in 2011. [3] Dines later gained popularity from his metal covers of pop songs. [4] [5] His following grew as he collaborated with other artists such as Rob Scallon. [6]

In 2015, Dines co-founded the band Rest, Repose with Ryan "Fluff" Bruce. He left the project in 2019 to focus on his group Daddy Rock. [7] Dines was also a member of metalcore band Dissimulator. [8]

Dines, in competition with Steve Terreberry, became known for playing guitars with an unusual amount of strings. [9] In 2017, he was scammed when trying to purchase a 17 string instrument from a fraud luthier. [10] [11] In response, Ormsby Guitars made him a custom 18 string guitar. This guitar was auctioned off, raising $20,000 for charity. [12] [13]

In 2018, Dines toured with heavy metal band Trivium. [14] He partly replaced front man Matt Heafy, who had to leave the tour prematurely due to his wife being close to giving birth. [15] Dines and Trivium further collaborated on a cover of "Better Now" by Post Malone. [16] In October 2019, he performed on stage with Breaking Benjamin. [17]

In April 2020, Dines appeared on the cover of Guitar World magazine, the first YouTuber to do so. [18] In 2020, Music Man released his signature Stingray guitar. [19] On December 4, 2020, he released a collaborative EP with Trivium vocalist and guitarist Matt Heafy under the name Dines X Heafy. [20] The video for "Dear Anxiety", which is the first track, was released on the same day to coincide with the release of Dines X Heafy. [21]
