Tim Nelson, the executive producer of Duluth Does Dylan, conceived of the album as a way of "using Dylan's connection to Duluth to promote the bands living and working here today."{{cite news|last=Dean|first=Christine|title=Duluth Does Dylan: Local bands pay homage to Minnesota's most celebrated musician|newspaper=Duluth Ripsaw|date=2000-11-29}} Only bands producing original music and active in the Duluth music scene were considered; most of the bands were selected in part based on their reception at the Homegrown Music Festival, Duluth's annual local music festival. Participating bands each selected a song recorded by Bob Dylan, and Nelson encouraged the musicians to use their own style rather than trying "to sound like Dylan."

Upon its release, Duluth Does Dylan was featured on the cover of the Duluth Ripsaw, and release parties were held in Duluth and Minneapolis–Saint Paul. A local Duluth brewery named a beer in honor of the album.
