Originally from Santa Cruz, California, where she won the region’s innovative creator-oriented NEXTies “Musician of the Year” award, Taylor Rae currently resides in Austin, Texas. The guitarist/singer/songwriter’s eclectic style traverses folk, R&B, jazz and blues. She says, “I call it ‘Soul & Roll’ – an amalgamation of roots music genres from the earliest days of American music.”

Taylor averages 200 gigs annually including Stubb’s in Austin, Hotel Café in L.A. and Santa Cruz’s Moe’s Alley, Kuumbwa Jazz and the Catalyst. Now 27, Taylor has aptly titled her new album, Mad Twenties, recorded in Nashville and now available on all listening platforms.
