Who is Betty Dylan??
It's like Pink Floyd or Jethro Tull. Noone in the band is named Betty. Vickie answers to Betty since so many people call her that. It's an easy mistake to make.
Betty Dylan is Dr. Dan and Vickie. They're married. He plays guitar, sings, produces and writes a lot of the songs. Vickie plays rhythm guitar, sings, sometimes writes, oftentimes edits and ALWAYS drives. They do a lot of acoustic shows, but when they play electric, they invite the best local musicians. So, there are many, many "members" of Betty Dylan.
The name, Betty Dylan, just kinda came to them and stuck. You see, Dr. Dan's writing is sort of Bob Dylan-esque and some say he sings sorta like him, too. So, Dylan evokes that style. But Vickie's voice is so feminine that the name needed to evoke it. Betty Dylan. There you go. Simple as that.

Betty Dylan was a desert dweller who lived at the turn of the century. She had seven daughters, all named Betty. She was an indian medicine woman who made her own instruments and whose sexuality was often questioned. Her daughters all learned her skills and spread about the globe, all bearing daughters named Betty Dylan. None of them ever took a man's name. Betty Dylan disappeared one day. The locals realized they hadn't seen her for months. Many believe she walked into the desert to die alone.
