Born to migrant workers in Moody, Texas and one of 11 siblings, Jackson Taylor had a nomadic childhood. He didn’t put down roots but developed a deep-seated love of music. Taylor has finally found his rightful home…in Texas. He combines old-school country with influences of punk and southern rock to tell stories of beauty and grit inspired by his own experiences. His album, Dark Days, hit stores in September.
