At eighteen, Taylor is a songwriter working hard to make the most. With hundreds of original recordings and a Top 40 spot in Canadian Idol behind him, the future looks bright. His self-made and promoted Youtube videos total nearly a quarter million views, and his style has wowed Canadian rock legends like Martin Tielli (Of Rheostatics) and Rick Emmet (Of Triumph).

In the Summer of 2009, Taylor was itching to make something that could take a listener to a different, perhaps richer place than standard albums could in a hopelessly impatient Ipod culture. With the idea of a 'Concept album made from the minimum', Taylor gave it a proper shot during his Christmas break in 2009 at York University. The journey was arduous, recording/producing round the clock, and with only a slight damaging to his grades from recording into January, Taylor felt he was done whatever it was.

The results reveal the story of Taylor's enthusiasm and inevitable exhaustion during the period, both with fascinating results. Straight-up pop songs, folk songs, rock songs, improvised songs, ukulele songs far removed from pretty tropical islands, Songs in 5/4 time, spoken word, pitch-shifted terrors, stellar special guests, you'll find it all here.

Hear for yourself a songwriter pushing all the boundaries he can find.
