62. Taylor Scott

b'Today\'s guest is songwriter, performer, and virtuoso guitarist, Taylor Scott. We go back 8ish years to the Snowy Range Music Festival in Laramie, WY (RIP!). We met through our mutual friend, Nic Clark (episodes 5 and 31), and ended up forming a "songwriter in round" group called, Sydow, Scott & Clark. We never broke up, we just stopped playing shows.\\n\\nTaylor spent his earliest years in St. Louis, MO before moving to Cheyenne, WY with his family as a kid. At the age of nine, he became enamored with the guitar, and discovered he was pretty good at it too. He was invited to tour with a blues band right out of high school and soon after was invited to be the touring guitarist with award winning Trace-Blues artist, Otis Taylor.\\n\\n2019 saw the release of Taylor Scott Band\'s latest studio album, All We Have. It was produced by Steve Berlin of Los Lobos. In support of the album, he toured with his band opening for Dave Alvin and Jimmie Dale Gilmore. Along the way, Scott and his band recorded their live set at the Belly Up in Solana Beach, CA. That was released on all streaming platforms back in September, 2020.\\n\\nIn our conversation, we chat about all of this plus his personal story, and what it\'s like to finally get to a level where you have a team (booking agent, manager etc.) helping push your music. \\n\\nIf you enjoy the podcast, please let others know, subscribe or write a review. 5 star ratings and reviews on Apple Music as well as subscribing to our YouTube Channel help us out the most!!\\n\\nIF YOU\'D LIKE TO SUPPORT THE PODCAST IN A MONETARY WAY, I\'M NOW ON PATREON! https://www.patreon.com/andysydow\\nYou can support my artist career and this podcast for as little as $3 per month.
