+----------------------------------[Notes]-----------------------------------+
| |
| Sitting next to Angel Taylor, her charisma is as palpable as her music |
| itself. Talking with her about the passionate swirl of her debut |
| release, Love Travels, the 20 year-old singer-songwriter is quick to |
| share stories about her inspirations, but those stories fast become |
| secondary to the true magic of her talent as a songwriter: The 12 tracks |
| on Love Travels are more than just personal missives that Angel Taylor |
| has set to music, they are living and breathing experiences that we have |
| all shared. The names may change, but the stories remain the same. |
| |
| "Anyone who has ever wanted to be loved very deeply by someone, but |
| hasn't, will totally be able to grab hold of these songs," says Taylor. |
| "That's what this album is about - wanting it so bad, not having it, and |
| wondering why... It's a lot of questions." |
| |
| And while Taylor doesn't pretend to have any answers, there's no |
| escaping how good it feels to get engulfed by her insecurities, romanced |
| by her vulnerability, and swooned by her tender lyrics and swaying |
| melodies. Feeling self-conscious about listening to love songs written |
| by a girl barely removed from her teens? Try and remember when love hurt |
| the most, that high school spark that never flickered into a flame, or |
| the flame that fanned out as quickly as it flared, making everything |
| around you ache and throb. In a lot of ways, the love Angel Taylor is |
| writing about is the most pure, untainted by a lifetime of experiences |
| that too often devour the idealism of the helpless romantic buried in us |
| all. |
| |
| "I don't think it's got anything to do with age or experience, because I |
| think your heart speaks much faster than you might imagine. I mean, I |
| don't even know that I can say I've fallen in love, but it's still not |
| surprising for me to speak or sing about love like I do, because I've |
| felt it... I've felt how I think it's supposed to feel, and whether that |
| was really love or not, I've still meant it with all my heart." |
| |
| Her heart resonates on Love Travels, where she peels apart the fairy |
| tale of falling in love and climbs inside, wondering why it can't be her |
| and rationalizing when it might be. "Chai Tea Latte" opens the album |
| like the songbird's mating call, comparing a multi-cultural love to her |
| favorite Starbucks drink and romanticizing the perfect date that never |
| was in a gently stirred ballad. Like John Mayer - her favorite musician, |
| and now labelmate on Columbia Records - Taylor's lyrics pack a wisdom |
| that defies her years, finding the simplest, most accessible way to |
| describe life's most confusing emotions. |
| |
| "Maple Tree" is Angel at her most vulnerable, a lush canopy of music |
| cloaking her bared soul, her vocals enunciating tremors through the |
| chorus: "If you love me, for the beauty of my personality, then I'll |
| stay here forever, don't you see; If you need me with a hunger, with a |
| hope and with a dream, then I'll stay here underneath this maple |
| tree..." Packing a melodic sensibility that is undeniable and engaging, |
| "Like You Do" and "Make Me Believe" follow down more traditional pop |
| avenues, propelled by buoyant strides and an artful, invigorated bounce. |
| At opposite ends of Taylor's musical spectrum, "Spinning Wheel" - the |
| track that birthed the album title - squares off against a confusing |
| flurry of emotions amidst one of the album's more upbeat and peppier |
| tempos, and a piano ballad offers the jarring landscape for the personal |
| insecurities of "Too Good For Words." Co-written with her sister Ebony, |
| "Epiphany" is a jazzy interlude, and "It's Easy" features the songwriter |
| in all her understated, stripped-down glory, noting that "to love me is |
| easy, like scooping mint ice cream." But the album's crowning glory just |
| may be "Lightning Strikes," starting heavy on the piano and trembling |
| like an ensuing storm, Taylor's epic vocals waiting for love to hit. |
| |
| "I've always felt like love is like lightning, in that it's big and |
| loud, and something crazy happens when it hits," she explains. "It's |
| almost scary, but it's thrilling at the same time." |
| |
| Just as spectacular as the music, is the young woman who crafts it. The |
| Southern California native never wanted a recording contract, but fate |
| intervened, making Angel Taylor one of music's emerging voices for those |
| of us who seeking substance amidst the overblown style of today's pop |
| culture. Looking for nothing more than a way to record a few of her |
| songs for family and friends as a Christmas gift, an unknowing email to |
| producer Mikal Blue [Colbie Caillat, Brendan James] resulted in an |
| invitation to his Revolver Studios for an impromptu audition. "I played |
| two songs, 'Chai' and 'It's Easy,' and he said he wanted to work with me |
| - I told him all I wanted to do was get my music on a CD, and asked him |
| how long that was going to take, and he said, 'Oh no, I want to really |
| work with you...'" |
| |
| And in a manner of months, the soft-spoken and big-hearted Angel Taylor |
| took her first plane trip (to visit record labels in New York), got her |
| first cell phone, and after signing with Aware/Columbia Records, was |
| able to move herself, her mother and two of her sisters into their first |
| house. Not bad for a girl who never had any musical schooling, and only |
| starting writing poetry because of her sister. "Ebony started writing |
| poetry when she was 14, I was 13, and I started writing cheeseball stuff |
| like, 'you're awesome, I think you're opossum.' It didn't really get |
| real until a few years later, but I never took a lesson - songs happened |
| by me banging on a piano, playing it by ear, and trying to fit my poetry |
| in. I didn't want to be a musician, I just wanted a fun hobby..." |
| |
| A passionate blend of youthful innocence, soulful essence and a |
| spiritual center, Angel Taylor is every bit as wholesome and pure as her |
| Love Travels debut, her longing for love and lust for life colored by |
| dashes of hope. Don't count on that changing anytime soon. |
