Talyor Rae

Taylor Rae spent years touring behind Mad Twenties, the career-launching debut album that spent more than 30 weeks on the Americana Radio charts. While the album's lead single, "Home on the Road," climbed into the Top 10, Rae kept the pedal glued to the metal, driving herself from show to show, watching America unfold outside the car windshield. With her second release, The Void, she takes her eyes off the road and turns her attention inward instead. Produced by Grammy winner Eric Krasno, The Void celebrates the contradictory and complementary parts of the human experience, exploring life's dark corners — from breakups to intergenerational trauma — with a colorful mix of roadhouse roots-rock, modern-day folk, alternative music, blues, and analog Americana.
