==Early life==
Dylan Davies was born on 1 February 2003, in Warwickshire, England to Australian father (K. J. Davies) from Williamstown, Victoria, and British mother (T. Wilkinson) from Coventry, England. He grew up alongside his two siblings; twin sister Libby and older sister Carly, residing in the small town of Bedworth. Dylan has lived in the secluded Bedworth his whole life and feels this is very limiting, finding it hard to explore his creative passions to the fullest.
Dylan was a gamer at heart, and had a clear interest in online video creation from young; uploading his first YouTube video, showing his love for the game Call of Duty at the age of 9 (July 8th, 2012). This was unknowingly the start of something special.
Despite being secular at the time, Dylan was involuntary put into a catholic primary school, being St Michael's Church of England Academy. In 2015, Dylan moved up to the high school, Nicholas Chamberlaine (age 11-12) where he later graduated in 2019 (age 16), only to attend college where he would study Graphic Design for just 3 days, before formally disenrolling to pursue his passion as the influencer we know today, Fxtch.
==Career==
Dylan later started to monetize his YouTube videos, taking things seriously during late high school (age 15), uploading his first video under the alias 'Fxtch' (pronounced "Fetch") on 23 August, 2018. Fxtch's early YouTube content consisted of gaming highlights on the online Battle Royale video game, Fortnite, in which was exploding with popularity at the time. Dylan was particularly good at this game, amongst the rest to say the least, and this only lead him to sign a deal with the largest esports team out of Denmark, Team Singularity on 23 August 2019. He would be known from this point onwards as a "Professional Gamer", now having to compete under Singularity's name at ESL's, Dreamhack competitive gaming tournament on 21 November 2019.
After a good while of heavily competing at a professional level, Dylan took the decision to step back from Singularity and instead focus on just content creation alone. He soon began to pitch himself to entertainment companies, which eventually would land him a deal with one of, arguably, the best creator management agencies in esports, CarterPulse. CarterPulse assisted Fxtch in now joining a North American team, called Team Kungarna, where he would be salaried to produce video content whilst representing their tag, "KNG" - this is where things really started to skyrocket in relation to his social media following.
In the timeframe of 6 months, Fxtch had gained well over 60,000+ new supporters to his YouTube channel, hitting the dream milestone of 100,000 subscribers on 6 February, 2021 (age 18), just after his contract term with Kungarna had expired.
Over the course of Fxtch's everlasting career, he had joined many other large professional gaming organisations and featured in viral video content, really making a name for himself in the "Fortnite community". He did not always enjoy being the gamer though. Dylan wanted to be involved at a higher level, so he courageously took his skills in both video creation, content and community management, to now work for gaming organisations in the hierarchy. Subsequently, this was his segue into the crazy world of music.
