Nolan Taylor has done it again.
Known for introspectively honest and heartfelt lyricism, the Cincinnati-area singer-songwriter brings an understated intensity to his music that is present in each word he writes, but bolstered by his vocal delivery.
Raw, emotional, and perhaps unassumingly powerful, Taylor has an uncanny ability to make the listener feel the intensity of his lyrics with each word he sings despite the soothing sound of his acoustic guitar-driven balladry. All of this holds true throughout Taylor’s growing catalog, and with his brand new single “In The Other Room,” too.
Go ahead and give it a listen for yourself here:
Everything Nolan Taylor touches seems to turn to gold, and “In The Other Room” is no exception.
Signed to Atlantic Records and with tons of momentum behind his music, Taylor’s career has been on a steady rise ever since his brutally honest hit song “68” went semi-viral on YouTube and social media with RadioWV.
The budding star has proved to be prolific in his songwriting and releasing ever since, particularly in 2024 as he has already released his 5-track RadioWV live EP and three additional singles in just the first few months of the year.
Here are a few of my favorites:
“Cincinnati Heart”
“Wichita”
“500”
I can’t even imagine how powerful it is hearing these songs performed live, but I’m pumped to get the opportunity to do so later this spring. If Nolan Taylor’s coming to a city near you, and there’s a high chance he is, then you should definitely do the same.
