AcoustiMix: Discoveries — Taylor Ashton

Today we'd like to tell you about Taylor Ashton

We were already familiar with Taylor Ashton through his work with the Vancouver band Fish & Bird and a duo project with Courtney Hartman called Been On Your Side, but when we heard his first solo album recently (link below) we were completely hooked. The new record is inspired by the devastating, ecstatic, gritty, sexy decade of Ashton’s twenties, woven together through his 5- string banjo with the help of 18 different musicians from the Brooklyn music scene and all across the U.S. and Canada. This is an album that will grab you on the first listen and keep you coming back for more.

Recent release: The Romantic, February 2020
