Taylor Lang

A lifelong multi-instrumentalist. A small-town upbringing. An education in the science of language itself. All of this combines in the creative expression of Taylor Lang as he delivers lush lyrical stories and music in a seldom-seen, genre-bending fusion of folk and fingerstyle techniques.

Influenced by artists as sonically diverse as Dan Mangan, Regina Spektor, Jon Gomm, Blink 182, and Pretty Lights, he sharpened his playing and performances over more than a decade in bands: first with award-winning Celtic grunge rockers Crack the Lens, and then as the frontman of Blaeser, a YYCMA-nominated folk-rock trio based in Calgary, AB. Now breaking out as a full solo player, 2024 is bringing something new: a collaboration with expert producer Russell Broom, a JUNO winner best known for his work with Jann Arden, Ian Tyson, Iskwe, Kue Varo, and many other chart-topping Canadian artists.

“When you hear [his] music...you know from the very first chord that you’re in for something special. ” - Taron Cochrane, CBC Saskatchewan
