Black Powder Soul is the product of Taylor’s winding musical journey that began in earnest at age 7, when his parents first gifted him a guitar of his own. Equal parts miraculous and tragic, the guitar was delivered at the very moment his childhood home in South Carolina -- self built by his enigmatic father -- burnt to the ground in a heartbreaking accident. “The postman wasn’t even going to come because of the fire, but figured someone needed to have this guitar.” That same watershed year, his beloved grandfather passed away. 
 In the years following, Taylor dove head first into mastering the instrument, completely self taught. 
 Throughout his life, the only thing that has rivaled his obsession with music is the pull Taylor feels toward the outdoors and fishing. During his days in the mountains and streams of South Carolina, Taylor learned to fly fish from his father and then found his own path. Similar to learning guitar on his own terms, Taylor started creating his own flies unlike the standard and conventional ones most anglers use. After high school, he needed a change of scenery, which led him out west and enrolling at Montana State University. After school, he bought a drift boat and was settled on becoming a fishing guide, but the pull toward music called him back. He sold his drift boat, packed up and moved back to South Carolina, renewing his dream of pursuing music full time and, eventually, leading to realization of Black Powder Soul.
