about
Lindsay Taylor can sum herself up in one word : passionate. Inspired, simply, by the air we breathe and by human endurance, Lindsay Taylor may be young in years but she possesses what others have come to construe as an "old soul." This characteristic has worked for and against her favor but for the most part, she explains, with a wink of the eye, "It's a blessing because it makes for good songwriting." Born on Christmas morning, she spent her younger years singing tracks off Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation album to choreographing dance routines for her classmates to belting gospel on Sunday mornings. Anything but naive, this multi-faceted, multi-talented performer, originally from Kansas City (a jazz hub), has been influenced by an amplitude of sounds from Motown to Classic Rock to her true calling, Soul. She insists that, "Soul is more than just a sound, it's a feeling from deep within. It's audible, tangible, and visible." Her influences range from John Lennon to Joss Stone, from Alicia Keys to The Rolling Stones, to name a few. Growing up in Kansas City, it was viewed as somewhat impractical to dream of becoming a singer/songwriter, so Lindsay focused her attention on other aesthetics such as her designing and writing talent. Never being the type to follow the crowd, instead of attending University, she packed her bags one month after graduating high school and drove halfway across America to reside in a city that she now gracefully calls home, Los Angeles.
