Debut Singles
Vinyl Release
Am Taylor who is most recently known from her collaborative work with punk legend Jayne County has released a new 7” record of the first two singles “Driving On The Edge of Night” and “Bright Yellow Sun”. The two songs found favor with Iggy Pop and debuted on his radio show “Iggy Confidential” on BBC Radio 6.
The A side “Bright Yellow Sun” blends intimate lyricism with ambient space-rock. Towering riffs and mythological metaphors combine to take the listener on an otherworldly journey in the song, but its genesis was far more terrestrial.
The B side is the first single from Am where sleek dream-pop meets airy Americana. “Driving on the Edge of Night” conveys a wistful reawakening, bolstered by refined indie-rock cadence and the right dose of pop sensibility.
Lately Taylor has been working with Jayne County on a forthcoming album to follow up their last collaborative release on Cleopatra Records called “I Don’t Fit In Anywhere”. Am has a dynamic songwriting repertoire from the grit of garage and punk rock in her work with Jayne to her solo work which is rooted as a singer songwriter that expands into an otherworldly experience that plays with aspects of dream pop and ethereal soundscapes usually found in theatrical scores.
With a colorful career sharing stages with the likes of Georgia Satellites, Fuel, Royal Bliss, Electric Six, Girl In A Coma, Hunter Valentine and as a touring guitarist with the band Brother Grey, Am is excited for the new horizon, most notably an upcoming album with Jayne County.
“Stylish, Shrewd, and Rockin”
~ Iggy Pop
“Bright Yellow Sun owes as much to desert jams as it does ’90s alternative and ’60s psychedelia, with rich overdriven tones and spacey Lydian moods that culminate in a technicolor chorus and ethereal wigouts. Suffice to say, it’s really speaking our language.”
~ Guitar World Magazine
“Surrounded by echoing progressions and relaxing ambiance, Am Taylor shares “Bright Yellow Sun” as their second solo track. Utilizing psych reverb and catchy riffs, the vocalist sings of rebirth in front of a full rock backtrack.”
~ AltPress
