Soulful and gritty, with pensive lyrics that leave you reeling with unnumbered amounts of feelings, Taylor Felt is an artist that has been percolating on our radar for some time. Born into a musical obsession, Taylor has been on the rollercoaster journey of creative expression, dancing, playing piano, even composing well before most of us get off training wheels. That life experience has manifested as an engrained talent, threading her sonic needle throughout life’s pitfalls, heartaches and heartbreaks into a songwriting wisdom that defies simple description. An old soul voice with a young perspective that can dish out pop, rock, emo, and bluesy ballads, Taylor Felt is an anomaly of songwriting and vocal range. 

Taylor’s EP Dead Flowers is her latest offering, furthering the notion that she is comfortable in any sonic milieu. It’s a prismatic collection of songs – one moment melodic & melancholic, the next sharp and stylish pop – all while carrying her unsullied perspective. At its heart, Dead Flowers is a collection of debris from a breakup, but “giving up the boy, getting the EP” was a win for Taylor. The project is her pain pressurized into her best songwriting to date. One of the standout of the EP, ‘i wish u would cheat,’ a forlorn ballad about the slow, indifferent decay of her past relationship, was recently turned into a fully contrasted live version at LowerDeck Sessions. Again showing her range, Taylor Felt flexes the song into a new bluesy cadence, with energy befitting the moment. We’ll have to keep watering this EP, as its growing as we speak, but if you haven’t got your fill of thrilling sad songs today, please check out the video below: you’ll feel cheated if you don’t.
