===1989–2005: The Wallflowers===
{{Main|The Wallflowers}}
Upon moving back to Los Angeles, Dylan and childhood friend Tobi Miller formed a new band called the Apples around 1989, along with Luther Russell on bass guitar and [[Aaron A. Brooks]] on drums. Both Russell and Brooks later departed to start their own respective bands. Dylan and Miller then recruited Barrie Maguire on bass, Peter Yanowitz on drums, and [[Rami Jaffee]] on keyboards to fill out the new band.<ref>{{cite episode |title=EP49: Rami Jaffee |series=Dean Delray's Let There Be Talk |network=iTunes |date=2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=The Wallflowers Who's Who: Rami Jaffee |url=http://www.the-wallflowers.net/people.html |website=The Wallflowers Network |access-date=August 5, 2014 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060716035500/http://www.the-wallflowers.net/people.html |archive-date=July 16, 2006 }}</ref> The Apples changed their name to The Wallflowers and began playing clubs in Los Angeles. They were eventually signed to [[Virgin Records]],<ref name="auto1">{{cite magazine|last1=Fricke|first1=David|title=The Confessions of Jakob Dylan: A Wallflower's Coming Out|magazine=Rolling Stone|date=October 26, 2000|issue=852|pages=45–48}}</ref> and in 1991, The Wallflowers began recording their debut album.  Dylan wrote the songs and the album was recorded live in the studio with minimal to no overdubbing. The Wallflowers' [[The Wallflowers (album)|eponymous debut]] was released on August 25, 1992.<ref>{{cite web|title=The Wallflowers – The Wallflowers|url=http://www.allmusic.com/album/the-wallflowers-mw0000082675|website=All Music|access-date=October 26, 2014|archive-date=February 27, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150227084540/http://www.allmusic.com/album/the-wallflowers-mw0000082675|url-status=live}}</ref> The album was met with mostly positive reviews but did not do well commercially, with a reported 40,000 copies sold.<ref name="auto">{{cite journal|title=Jakob Dylan|journal=The Patcast Podcast|date=September 28, 2014}}</ref> Despite low sales, The Wallflowers began touring nationwide, mostly as an opening act for several bands including the [[Spin Doctors]] and [[10,000 Maniacs]].<ref>{{cite web|title=The Calendar Archive: 1992 |url=http://www.the-wallflowers.net/calendarall.html |website=The Wallflowers Network |access-date=June 5, 2014 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061013145030/http://www.the-wallflowers.net/calendarall.html |archive-date=October 13, 2006 }}</ref>

Upon returning from a tour in 1993, the band learned that management at Virgin had shifted, leading to the removal of [[Jeff Ayeroff]] and Jordan Harris, who had signed The Wallflowers to the label. The new executives at Virgin were not pleased with The Wallflowers' slow sales and the band did not feel they had a future with the label, so they asked to be released from their contract; Virgin complied and by the end of the year, The Wallflowers were left without a label.<ref name="auto"/> The band went back to playing clubs in Los Angeles and looking for a new label. During this time, the band went through a number of personnel changes. In 1993, Maguire was asked to leave for undisclosed reasons. The band would continue playing shows with another bass player, Jimmie Snider, until May 1993, when the band found a permanent replacement. Greg Richling, whom Dylan went to high school with, became the band's new bassist. Richling remained a member of The Wallflowers for the next two decades, until he left in 2013. The band continued to play club shows in Los Angeles through mid-1994; it was around this time when Yanowitz left The Wallflowers to join 10,000 Maniacs, then fronted by his girlfriend, [[Natalie Merchant]]. Shortly after Yanowitz's departure, The Wallflowers caught the attention of Tom Whalley and [[Jimmy Iovine]] of [[Interscope Records]], who signed the band in 1995.<ref name="auto1"/>

The Wallflowers began recording their second album, ''[[Bringing Down the Horse]]'', in 1995.  Around the time they began recording, founding member Tobi Miller left the band.  A number of guitarists stepped in to finish the album.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Beviglia|first1=Jim|title=Jakob Dylan's Back Pages: Bringing Down the Horse Revisited|url=http://www.americansongwriter.com/2012/12/jakob-dylans-back-pages-bringing-down-the-horse-revisited/|website=American Songwriter|date=December 10, 2012|access-date=November 12, 2014|archive-date=November 29, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141129065505/http://www.americansongwriter.com/2012/12/jakob-dylans-back-pages-bringing-down-the-horse-revisited/|url-status=live}}</ref> ''Bringing Down the Horse'' was produced by [[T Bone Burnett]] and the songs were written by Dylan.

The Wallflowers now included drummer [[Mario Calire]] and guitarist [[Michael Ward (musician)|Michael Ward]], in addition to Dylan, Jaffee and Richling. The band performed shows as headliners, as well as openers for acts such as [[Sheryl Crow]] in early 1997 and [[Counting Crows]] in the summer of 1997. They also opened for [[Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers]] in January 1997, as well as for [[the Rolling Stones]] and [[Bob Dylan]] in November 1997.<ref name="auto2">{{cite web|title=The Calendar Archive |url=http://www.the-wallflowers.net/calendarall.html |website=The Wallflowers Network |access-date=November 12, 2014 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061013145030/http://www.the-wallflowers.net/calendarall.html |archive-date=October 13, 2006 }}</ref> In June 1997, Dylan was featured on the cover of ''[[Rolling Stone]]''. In the issue's accompanying interview, Dylan spoke at length about his lineage for the first time.<ref name="auto3"/>

After touring for nearly two years, The Wallflowers took a short break before returning to the studio to record their third album, ''[[(Breach)]]''. Dylan approached the songwriting process differently this time than he had for The Wallflowers' two previous albums, explaining that he didn't want to avoid the subject of his personal life, as he had done in the past: "''(Breach)'' was the first record that I realized that it's necessary and I have a right to write about anything that I want to write about. I'm not going to dance around these subjects anymore ... I don't have any interest in writing songs that are defensive or that address anything that don't come naturally to me but I also realized that I needed to stop this nonsense of pretending that hiding any of this information counts to anybody; it just doesn't really matter anymore."<ref>{{cite journal|title=Learning That I Have a Right to Do What I Do|journal=ITunes Originals – the Wallflowers}}</ref>

The Wallflowers entered the studio towards the end of 1999 with producers [[Michael Penn]] and Andrew Slater, The Wallflowers' manager. ''(Breach)'' took about eight months to record and was released on October 10, 2000.<ref>{{cite web|title=Breach|url=http://www.allmusic.com/album/breach-mw0000099710|website=All Music|access-date=November 12, 2014|archive-date=February 27, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150227054205/http://www.allmusic.com/album/breach-mw0000099710|url-status=live}}</ref> The Wallflowers embarked on a tour that lasted through the end of 2000 and into 2001, making stops in Japan and [[Madison Square Garden]] in New York for a four-night run, opening for [[the Who]].<ref name="auto2"/> In October 2000, Dylan was featured on the cover of ''Rolling Stone'' for a second time.<ref name="auto1"/> In October 2001, guitarist Michael Ward announced he was leaving The Wallflowers, citing creative differences.<ref>{{cite web|title=Wallflowers Part Ways with Guitarist Michael Ward|url=http://www.mtv.com/news/1449942/wallflowers-part-ways-with-guitarist-michael-ward/|website=MTV|access-date=November 12, 2014|archive-date=December 8, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151208231009/http://www.mtv.com/news/1449942/wallflowers-part-ways-with-guitarist-michael-ward/|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Dylan began writing for The Wallflowers' fourth album, ''[[Red Letter Days (album)|Red Letter Days]]'', in 2001. The band recorded demos while on tour with [[John Mellencamp]] that year before getting into the studio in [[Santa Monica, California]]. Due to the absence of a lead guitarist during the recording for ''Red Letter Days'', Dylan took on more lead guitar duties than he had previously.<ref>{{cite web|title=Red Letter Days credits|url=http://www.allmusic.com/album/red-letter-days-mw0000024785/credits|website=All Music|access-date=November 13, 2014|archive-date=December 15, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181215173420/https://www.allmusic.com/album/red-letter-days-mw0000024785/credits|url-status=live}}</ref> ''Red Letter Days'' was produced by founding Wallflowers member Tobi Miller and Bill Appleberry. Following the release of the album's first single, "When You're On Top" on August 16, 2002, ''Red Letter Days'' was released on November 5, 2002.<ref>{{cite web|title=Reviews for Red Letter Days|url=http://www.metacritic.com/music/red-letter-days/the-wallflowers|website=Metacritic|access-date=November 13, 2014|archive-date=May 11, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130511224034/http://www.metacritic.com/music/red-letter-days/the-wallflowers|url-status=live}}</ref> Following tours in the US and Europe, drummer Mario Calire announced he was leaving The Wallflowers in 2003.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Flans|first1=Robyn|title=Ozomatli|url=http://www.moderndrummer.com/site/2007/10/ozomatli/#_|website=Modern Drummer|date=October 25, 2007|access-date=November 13, 2014|archive-date=July 13, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150713115523/http://www.moderndrummer.com/site/2007/10/ozomatli/#_|url-status=live}}</ref>

The Wallflowers returned to the studio in July 2004 to record their fifth album, ''[[Rebel, Sweetheart]]''. Instead of recording in Los Angeles, The Wallflowers instead opted to record in [[Atlanta|Atlanta, Georgia]], which was where their producer for this album, [[Brendan O'Brien (music producer)|Brendan O'Brien]], was based. To replace drummer Mario Calire, Fred Eltringham joined The Wallflowers just before getting into the studio. In addition to writing the songs, Dylan also painted the cover art for this album.<ref>{{cite web|title=Rebel, Sweetheart credits|url=http://www.allmusic.com/album/rebel-sweetheart-mw0000257535/credits|website=All Music|access-date=November 13, 2014|archive-date=March 7, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160307201235/http://www.allmusic.com/album/rebel-sweetheart-mw0000257535/credits|url-status=live}}</ref> ''Rebel, Sweetheart'' was released on May 24, 2005.<ref>{{cite press release|title=The Wallflowers Set to Release Rebel, Sweetheart on May 24|url=http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/the-wallflowers-set-to-release-rebel-sweetheart-on-may-24-54128692.html|website=PR Newswire|access-date=November 13, 2014|archive-date=November 26, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141126075825/http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/the-wallflowers-set-to-release-rebel-sweetheart-on-may-24-54128692.html|url-status=live}}</ref> The Wallflowers toured through the summer of 2005, joined by guitarist Stuart Mathis, on what would be their last tour for 2 years. After 2005, The Wallflowers parted ways with their longtime record label, Interscope Records.

===2006–2011: Solo career===
Beginning in 2006, Dylan began playing shows without The Wallflowers, though he did tour with the band on numerous occasions between 2007 and 2009.  In May and June 2006, Dylan toured with former Wallflowers producer [[T Bone Burnett]], performing solo acoustic opening sets.  In fall of that year, Dylan's song "Here Comes Now" was featured as the theme song for an [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] drama, ''[[Six Degrees (TV series)|Six Degrees]]''.  Also in the fall of 2006, it was announced that Dylan had signed a solo recording contract with [[Columbia Records]].<ref>{{cite magazine|title=Jakob Dylan Joins Columbia, Writes for TV|url=http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/57191/jakob-dylan-joins-columbia-writes-for-tv|magazine=Billboard|access-date=November 15, 2014|archive-date=September 15, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140915073138/http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/57191/jakob-dylan-joins-columbia-writes-for-tv|url-status=live}}</ref>

====''Seeing Things''====
In 2007, Dylan appeared on several tribute albums, including ''[[Endless Highway: The Music of the Band]]'' and ''[[Instant Karma: The Amnesty International Campaign to Save Darfur]]'', a charity album consisting of covers of [[John Lennon]] songs.  On ''Endless Highway'', Dylan performed a cover of [[the Band]]'s "Whispering Pines."  For ''Instant Karma'', Dylan performed a cover of Lennon's "[[Gimme Some Truth]]," with [[Dhani Harrison]] contributing backing vocals on the song.<ref>{{cite web|title=Instant Karma: The Amnesty International Campaign to Save Darfur|url=http://www.allmusic.com/album/instant-karma-the-amnesty-international-campaign-to-save-darfur-mw0000577865|website=All Music|access-date=November 16, 2014|archive-date=June 22, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130622051801/http://www.allmusic.com/album/instant-karma-the-amnesty-international-campaign-to-save-darfur-mw0000577865|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Endless Highway: The Music of The Band|url=http://www.allmusic.com/album/endless-highway-the-music-of-the-band-mw0000558210|website=All Music|access-date=November 16, 2014|archive-date=October 23, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141023011501/http://www.allmusic.com/album/endless-highway-the-music-of-the-band-mw0000558210|url-status=live}}</ref>

[[File:Jakob Dylan.jpg|thumb|upright|Dylan in 2007]]
In September 2007, it was reported by ''[[The New York Times]]'' that Dylan was recording his first solo album at producer [[Rick Rubin]]'s home in the [[Hollywood Hills]].<ref>{{cite news|last1=Hirschberg|first1=Lynn|title=The Music Man|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2007/09/02/magazine/02rubin.t.html?ref=magazine&_r=0|newspaper=The New York Times|date=September 2, 2007|access-date=November 16, 2014|archive-date=September 26, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150926092724/http://www.nytimes.com/2007/09/02/magazine/02rubin.t.html?ref=magazine|url-status=live}}</ref> Regarding its sparse instrumentation and production, Dylan described the differences in the writing process for ''Seeing Things'', compared to writing for The Wallflowers:

{{Blockquote|A lot of times when you write songs, you're aware that this line is just going to help you get to the next line and someone's probably going to do an organ fill right there anyway — you can let those go.  But with something like this, it was just three instruments, really; vocals being one of the instruments, which then makes the lyrics being one of the instruments.  You're more aware that things are going to be more exposed and you can't really let anything go unless you're confident that this is what you want to say.<ref>{{cite web|title=Jakob Dylan: Strength in Starkness|url=https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=92679232|website=NPR.org|date=July 18, 2008|access-date=16 November 2014|archive-date=October 5, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171005101019/http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=92679232|url-status=live}}</ref>}}

Following the completion of recording in 2007, ''Seeing Things'' was released on June 10, 2008.<ref>{{cite web|title=Jakob Dylan: Seeing Things|url=http://www.jakobdylan.com/music/seeing-things|website=JakobDylan.com|access-date=November 16, 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://archive.today/20141122042346/http://www.jakobdylan.com/music/seeing-things|archive-date=November 22, 2014}}</ref> The album received generally favorable reviews and peaked at No.24 in the US on the ''Billboard 200''.<ref>{{cite web|title=Reviews for Seeing Things|url=http://www.metacritic.com/music/seeing-things/jakob-dylan|website=Metacritic.com|access-date=November 16, 2014|archive-date=February 4, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150204040833/http://www.metacritic.com/music/seeing-things/jakob-dylan|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite magazine|title=Jakob Dylan Chart History|url=http://www.billboard.com/artist/304065/jakob+dylan/chart|magazine=Billboard|access-date=November 16, 2014|archive-date=July 7, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150707053249/http://www.billboard.com/artist/304065/jakob+dylan/chart|url-status=live}}</ref> Following the release of ''Seeing Things'', Dylan made several television appearances to promote the album and toured with a backing band called the Gold Mountain Rebels, which consisted of Wallflowers drummer Fred Eltringham, guitarist [[Audley Freed]] and bassist George Reif.  In the summer and fall of 2008, Dylan and the Gold Mountain Rebels played a combination of theaters and festivals in the US, Europe, and Japan, including [[Farm Aid]] in [[Mansfield, Massachusetts]], and the [[Newport Folk Festival]]. In addition to touring with the Gold Mountain Rebels, Dylan and Eltringham also performed several shows with The Wallflowers in 2008.<ref>{{cite web|title=The Wallflowers Concert Setlists |url=http://www.setlist.fm/setlists/the-wallflowers-7bd6b60c.html?page=12|website=Setlist.fm|access-date=November 16, 2014|archive-date=November 29, 2014|url-status=deviated|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141129030615/http://www.setlist.fm/setlists/the-wallflowers-7bd6b60c.html?page=12 }}</ref>

====''Women + Country''====
In 2009, Dylan visited T Bone Burnett at a studio where Burnett was producing the soundtrack for the film [[Crazy Heart]].  Burnett asked Dylan if he had any new songs to show him.  The only song Dylan had was one he had written for [[Glen Campbell]]'s forthcoming album, ''[[Ghost on the Canvas]]'', called "Nothing But the Whole Wide World."  Burnett was impressed by the song and asked Dylan to come up with fifteen additional songs so they could put an album together.  Dylan came back to Burnett six weeks later with the songs and in 2009 they recorded Dylan's second solo album, ''[[Women + Country]]''.<ref>{{cite magazine|title=Dylan Performs With Neko Case, Talks "Women + Country"|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/jakob-dylan-performs-with-neko-case-talks-women-country-20100405|magazine=Rolling Stone|date=April 5, 2010|access-date=November 16, 2014|archive-date=December 24, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141224234347/http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/jakob-dylan-performs-with-neko-case-talks-women-country-20100405|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Jakob Dylan – Soundcheck|url=http://soundcheck.wnyc.org/story/89676-jakob-dylan/|website=WNYC|access-date=November 16, 2014|date=August 4, 2010|archive-date=December 19, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141219020651/http://soundcheck.wnyc.org/story/89676-jakob-dylan/|url-status=live}}</ref>
[[File:Jakob Dylan at Mr & Mrs T and Rachael Ray's Feedback Festival at SXSW 2010.jpg|thumb|left|upright|Dylan performing at SXSW in 2010]]
''Women + Country'' had a decidedly fuller sound than ''Seeing Things'', thanks to the horns, [[pedal steel guitar|pedal steel]] and fiddle that were prominently featured throughout the album.  Burnett also brought in [[Neko Case]] and [[Kelly Hogan]] to contribute background vocals on eight of the album's eleven songs.<ref>{{cite web|title=Women + Country credits|url=http://www.allmusic.com/album/women-country-mw0001965762/credits|website=All Music|access-date=November 16, 2014|archive-date=December 8, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151208165831/http://www.allmusic.com/album/women-country-mw0001965762/credits|url-status=live}}</ref>

After releasing an EP version of the album earlier that year, ''Women + Country'' was released on April 6, 2010, on Columbia Records.  The album was met with generally favorable reviews and peaked at No.12 on the ''Billboard 200''; the highest position any of Dylan's albums – solo or with The Wallflowers – had peaked since The Wallflowers' 1996 breakthrough album, ''[[Bringing Down the Horse]]''.<ref>{{cite web|title=Reviews for Women + Country|url=http://www.metacritic.com/music/women-+-country/jakob-dylan|website=Metacritic|access-date=November 16, 2014|archive-date=February 4, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150204040831/http://www.metacritic.com/music/women-+-country/jakob-dylan|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite magazine|title=Jakob Dylan – Chart History|url=http://www.billboard.com/artist/304065/jakob-dylan/chart|magazine=Billboard|access-date=November 16, 2014|archive-date=October 26, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141026024949/http://www.billboard.com/artist/304065/jakob-dylan/chart|url-status=live}}</ref> In addition to a series of television appearances to promote the album, Dylan and a backing band called Three Legs toured the U.S., the United Kingdom and Ireland in the spring and summer of 2010.  At a stop at the Bearsville Theater in [[Woodstock, New York]], Dylan was joined on stage by [[Garth Hudson]] of [[the Band]] for several songs.<ref>{{cite web|title=Jakob Dylan and Three Legs perform "On Up the Mountain" with Garth Hudson|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CnZ16MbkqE| archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211113/_CnZ16MbkqE| archive-date=2021-11-13 | url-status=live|website=YouTube| date=July 10, 2010 |access-date=November 16, 2014}}{{cbignore}}</ref>

Also in 2010, Dylan sang backing vocals on the [[Court Yard Hounds]]' song "See You In the Spring."

===2012–present: Return of The Wallflowers and other projects===

On November 1, 2011, it was announced that The Wallflowers would be reuniting to release a sixth studio album the following year.<ref>{{cite magazine|last1=Appleford|first1=Steve|title=Jakob Dylan Planning Wallflowers Reunion|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/jakob-dylan-planning-wallflowers-reunion-20111101|magazine=Rolling Stone|date=November 2011|access-date=November 16, 2014|archive-date=February 2, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130202070435/http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/jakob-dylan-planning-wallflowers-reunion-20111101|url-status=dead}}</ref> The Wallflowers had toured on and off during their hiatus but had not made an album together since 2005's ''Rebel, Sweetheart''.

The Wallflowers recorded their sixth studio album, ''[[Glad All Over (The Wallflowers album)|Glad All Over]]'', in [[Nashville, Tennessee]], in early 2012.  Shortly before entering the studio, the band replaced drummer Fred Eltringham with [[Jack Irons]].  The writing process was different for this album than previous Wallflowers albums; instead of Dylan bringing in completed songs, he brought only lyrics to the studio, and as a band they wrote the music for the songs.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Jackson|first1=Blair|title=The Wallflowers|url=http://mixonline.com/news/profiles/wallflowers/366367|website=Mix|date=October 2012|access-date=November 21, 2014|archive-date=December 19, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221219043305/https://www.mixonline.com/recording/wallflowers-366367|url-status=live}}</ref> The Wallflowers toured throughout the summer and fall of 2012.  ''Glad All Over'' was released on October 9, 2012, on Columbia Records.<ref>{{cite web|title=Glad All Over|url=http://www.allmusic.com/album/glad-all-over-mw0002407780|website=All Music|access-date=November 21, 2014|archive-date=February 22, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150222184537/http://www.allmusic.com/album/glad-all-over-mw0002407780|url-status=live}}</ref> In the spring of 2013, The Wallflowers did an arena tour opening for [[Eric Clapton]].<ref>{{cite web|title=The Wallflowers Announce 2013 Tour with Eric Clapton|url=http://www.thewallflowers.com/2012/11/19/the-wallflowers-announce-2013-spring-tour-with-eric-clapton/|website=TheWallflowers.com|access-date=November 21, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140820195705/http://www.thewallflowers.com/2012/11/19/the-wallflowers-announce-2013-spring-tour-with-eric-clapton/|archive-date=August 20, 2014|url-status=dead}}</ref>

In 2013, The Wallflowers went through a number of personnel changes, beginning with longtime keyboard player Rami Jaffee.  Jaffee played his last show with The Wallflowers to date in 2013 but has since not officially announced that he quit the band.  Later that year, longtime bass player Greg Richling and drummer Jack Irons announced that they were leaving The Wallflowers, citing that they wanted to focus on a band they were both in called Arthur Channel.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Yeatts|first1=Andrianna|title=Song Premiere: Arthur Channel, "16 Children"|url=http://www.americansongwriter.com/2013/09/song-premiere-arthur-channel-16-children/|website=American Songwriter|date=September 25, 2013|access-date=November 21, 2014|archive-date=May 30, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150530064058/http://www.americansongwriter.com/2013/09/song-premiere-arthur-channel-16-children/|url-status=live}}</ref> A number of drummers and bass players filled in as The Wallflowers continued to tour through the end of 2016.

Aside from work with The Wallflowers, Dylan has played a key role in several other projects. In early 2013, Dylan, along with [[Dave Matthews]], [[Charlie Sexton]], [[Brady Blade]], and Sexton's brother Will, wrote and recorded an album in [[Shreveport, Louisiana]], as a new band called the Nauts.  The album has yet to be released.<ref>{{cite magazine|last1=Grow|first1=Kory|title=Dave Matthews Forms Supergroup with Jakob Dylan|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/dave-matthews-forms-supergroup-with-jakob-dylan-20131216|magazine=Rolling Stone|date=December 16, 2013|access-date=July 11, 2016|archive-date=December 17, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131217062935/http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/dave-matthews-forms-supergroup-with-jakob-dylan-20131216|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Dave Matthews Solo Album in the Works for 2017|url=http://www.dmbnews.net/dave-matthews-solo-album-in-the-works-for-2017/|website=DMBNews|date=June 20, 2016 |access-date=July 11, 2016|archive-date=June 26, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160626152644/http://www.dmbnews.net/dave-matthews-solo-album-in-the-works-for-2017/|url-status=live}}</ref>

In September 2015, Dylan released a duet online with [[Cat Power]] covering [[the Byrds]]' "[[You Showed Me]]" (which was later popularized by [[the Turtles]]). The song is a track on the 2019 studio album called ''Echo in the Canyon'', in which Dylan covers songs in duets by 1960s-era Southern California folk rock artists, such as the Turtles, [[the Mamas & the Papas]], [[Buffalo Springfield]], and [[the Beach Boys]].  Dylan, along with [[Regina Spektor]], Cat Power, [[Beck]], [[Fiona Apple]], and Jade Castrinos, performed these songs in a concert at the [[Orpheum Theater (Los Angeles)|Orpheum Theatre]] in Los Angeles in October 2015. The creation of ''Echo in the Canyon'' led Dylan, along with manager Andrew Slater, to create a [[Echo in the Canyon|feature-length documentary]] about the project, as well as the Laurel Canyon music scene. The film premiered at the LA Film Festival on September 20, 2018, and has been positively received.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Hammond |first1=Pete |title=1960s-Era Music Docu 'Echo in the Canyon' World Premiere Opens Los Angeles Film Festival In High Style On Starry Night |url=https://deadline.com/2018/09/echo-in-the-canyon-world-premiere-l-a-film-festival-1202468646/ |website=Deadline Hollywood |date=September 21, 2018 |access-date=September 24, 2018 |archive-date=September 25, 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180925025351/https://deadline.com/2018/09/echo-in-the-canyon-world-premiere-l-a-film-festival-1202468646/ |url-status=live }}</ref>
