Patchboyz welcomes Taylor Shepard & and his brother Taylor we get into his journey from the heartlands of Iowa to the bustling life of a musician in Midland, Texas. His melody-rich narrative takes us from serendipitous encounters with country music royalty to the stage lights of local hotspots, where community and camaraderie reign supreme.
Strap in for a ride through the real-life chords of balancing passion with the nitty-gritty of the music industry. We discuss the importance of supporting raw talent, the buzz of the local bar scene, and the value of making smart choices—like skipping the drive home after a night out. Our guest, Taylor, isn't just strumming strings; he's cutting through life's noise with each performance, from the community hub at the American Legion to the sultry ambiance of Buffalo Nickel.
As the conversation crescendos, we share tales of military bonds that transcend service time, bar brawls that test those bonds, and the transition from military life to civilian dreams. We laugh over times when rivalry could've ended in fisticuffs, toast to the resilience learned from oil field workers, and reflect on the power of feedback, both in music and life. It's a session that celebrates the melodies and memories that make us who we are, featuring an artist like Taylor Shepard, whose life and tunes are as authentic as they come.
