Brain injury survivor Dylan Flynn created the “Pass the Bass” campaign to support brain injury survivors everywhere. Dylan travels all over having bands play shows using his bass and raising funds for his charity. The likes of Fat Mike (NOFX), Jay Bentley (Bad Religion), and Mark Hoppus (Blink-182) are just a few who have played his bass.
“My name’s Dylan Flynn, I’m doing a campaign to raise money for brain injury support through music. I got my first bass when I was 15. Suffering a traumatic brain injury shortly after, I’m unfortunately not really able to play. I’ve been getting bassists to play mine. Bands have let me sell merchandise at shows. The money that I raise goes to the Brain Injury Association of America. Having done this for 3 yrs, over 30 bassists have played mine. Near $6,000 was donated in 2017. I’m currently 33, have lived with a traumatic brain injury the majority of my life. I’m trying to do what I can to help support other individuals struggling with brain injuries.”
