ARTIST FEATURE: Indie-folk artist George Taylor and watch his new video for Come Follow Me Down

May 31, 2018

Hailing from a village of Bulwick, just two hours north of London is the place that George Taylor calls home. Singer Songwriter George captured my attention with his soulful gritty vocals.  He brings his storytelling to life through his music as it highlights his emotion and passion. George has recently released a video for his new song Come Follow Me Down. “Come Follow Me Down is an invitation from one person to another to join them in their misery. It’s not a wishing of darkness upon someone else, but more of a desperate search for understanding. It’s a love song that calls on that person to feel what you feel in order to understand why you are who you are.”   Check out the new video here: Purchase/Stream Links: iTunes | GooglePlay | Amazon | Spotify What a voice! I hope we can bring you an interview soon so you can get to know more about George Taylor. Make sure to visit his social media sites and stay up to date on his latest news. [Read More]

When I hear the intro synth sounds I remember being on that train in upstate New York in Mid October when all the leaves were changing. The video concept originally started as a separate entity from the song, but now I feel the same watching the video as I first did on that train.” Check out the new video here: The new single and her EP captures her vulnerability as she bares her soul and feelings in each song. Her emotionally driven lyrics will take a hold of you and the infectious pop hooks will reel you in. We look forward to her new [Read More]
