Discover the Indies
Taylor Guitars is proud that many talented, independent artists play our instruments. Many performers struggle to make their way in the treacherous, frequently discouraging waters of the music industry armed with creativity, aspirations, determination, and their Taylors. We salute all the "indies" who persevere in face of daunting odds, and without the benefit of a major label's promotional muscle, to make their unique contributions to the world of music.

While our "Discover the Indies" feature has been put on temporary hiatus as we redesign the artist portion of our website, we've continued to spotlight independent music through our quarterly Wood&Steel "On Review" feature. To read the latest reviews and hear soundclips, click here. And feel free to peruse our archived Indie pages below.

If you are an independent artist and are interested in submitting a CD for review, please read our Indie Requirements page.

Technical Support Note:
All independent artist pages contain song clips from recent albums. Most of the clips are in RealAudio format, but we have recently begun to offer MP3 versions on some of our latest artist pages. If you have a slower Internet connection, you can click on either the 28k or 56k links to hear RealAudio versions of the songs. If you have a high-bandwidth Internet connection, we recommend clicking on the MP3 link for higher-quality sound.

To listen to RealAudio Files, you will need to download the RealPlayer Plugin. To listen to MP3 files, you will need to download a MP3 music player such as WINAMP.
