Details:
Gloria Taylor, a Chicago-based singer-songwriter, is part folk, part rock, part fairy and all heart.
Once a shy performer, Gloria has always had the urge, just not the nerve. Divorce, single parenthood and a dedicated massage career kept her musical talents hidden until she began playing out a few years ago.
Once a full-time member of The Phillips Taylor Band, a Chicago-based folk-rock quintet, Gloria recently released her debut solo CD, "It Just Is What It Is." So far, the CD has received rave reviews by those lucky enough to hear it. Following a writeup in The Daily Herald, the Chicago suburbs'' #1 newspaper, she played to a standing-room-only crowd at her CD release party.
The song "It''s Okay" was also used recently in the film "Who Made Robert DeNiro King?," which will be making the rounds at independent film festivals this year.
If you like good ''ol ballad rock with a down to earth flavor for honesty, introspection and issues of the heart, let her magic in. Gloria''s simple, flowing guitar style lays the foundation behind her rich harmonies and tender lyrics. Her soft, inviting alto lures the listener to dance beneath the stars, get brutely honest and trust oneself when all seems lost.
Gloria plays at coffeehouses and small clubs in the Chicagoland area. She performs solo and occassionally with members of the Phillips Taylor Band. She is excitingly planning her second CD. For more info please visit her website https://www.tradebit.com.
