Dolan: “Best Thing I Never Did”

Dolan Finds Clarity

in Whirlwind Love with New Single

Fort Worth singer-songwriter Dolan returns with a soulful and introspective new single, “The Best Thing I Never Did,” in June of 2025. With his unmistakable blend of country, rock, and soul, Dolan reflects on the chaos of chasing intense love, and the calm that follows when you finally find the real thing.

“The song is about me chasing down a 100-mile-per-hour love and the doubts that come along with the chase,” Dolan shares. “It didn’t take me long to figure out, when you know you have found ‘the one,’ you hold on to that love.” That realization anchors the track, which blends emotional grit with smooth, resonant vocals and heartfelt lyrics that feel both personal and universal.

As an adoptive father of four, Dolan brings lived experience to every line he sings. His ability to tell real stories through music is what continues to set him apart…along with a sound inspired by legends like Chris Stapleton, Teddy Swims, Leon Bridges, and the late Chris Cornell. With raw vulnerability and steady conviction, “The Best Thing I Never Did” speaks to the kind of love that grounds you, after years of chasing what never quite fit.

Dolan’s music has always been rooted in passion for both family and storytelling, and this new single is no exception. With more releases planned throughout the next two years, he continues to forge a unique path that blends Texas grit with Tennessee soul, creating music that lingers long after the last note fades.
