MP3 Dean Taylor - So Far
11 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Roots Rock, ROCK: Folk Rock
Details:
After leaving a ten year career as a professional musician to pursue other aspects of the entertainment industry, this impressive all original debut release brings Dean Taylor back to his musical roots. Combining 70''s and 80''s influenced Pop Rock with an acoustic approach to his Folk/Americana songwriting has resulted in a truly unique combination of styles that seem familiar yet unlike what you''ve heard before. "I just write what I hear inside" he says. "Sometimes the structure of the song is less important than the idea or emotion you''re trying to convey." This approach has been a double edged sword in his pursuit of commercial acceptance. "I''ve had some Nashville producers and publishers really like my stuff personally but then they tell me they don''t know exactly what to do with it. I figure it''s just a matter of time till I find the right outlet." Let''s hope he does so more people will be able to enjoy this music veteran''s debut effort.
Dean credits Atlanta producer David Leonard at Writeside Productions to help define his sound. He also co-produced and helped play all the instruments on this eclectic collection of songs. "I would go into the studio with an acoustic song and by the end of the session it would end up as a rocker! Sometimes songs just take on a life of their own. Maybe that''s why I''ve had a hard time labeling what kind of record this is for all the music websites." Call it Americana or Roots Rock or Folk Rock, but whatever it is, call it GOOD!
It''s guitar-based Roots/Folk Rock in the style of the Wallflowers, Springteen, Petty and Steve Earl, sung with an earthy voice that conveys the emotion contained in his honest, sometimes dark but always intriguing lyrics.
You''ll find yourself humming these mind-sticking melodies before you know it, all the while discovering deeper meanings in the lyrics with repeated listenings.
