TRINA TAYLOR: Natural High


Trina Taylor is a singer/songwriter from New York who has been able to jump-start a career in the music industry in a strikingly short amount of time. From picking up a guitar for the first time to performing in front of a live audience, Trina has accomplished many milestones, and continues to take on any goal she has set before her.

Trina Taylor’s song “Natural High” was the winner in the “Search for the Best Indie Songwriter” contest, “Shades of Blue” and “Remedy” were both nominated for the Los Angeles Music Awards as Best Song and Best Female Vocalist; respectively. Trina was nominated twice for the NYC Jammy Awards as Best Female Artist. Trina’s songs have been played on College Radio all around the country and she was featured on The Buck and Rogers Radio show (Talk of Las Vegas) and The Local Show Live, 88.5fm. Trina was also a finalist in the IAMA (International Acoustic Music Awards).

Trina Taylor currently resides in Nashville and works with a number of top songwriters and producers in the industry. Her talent and strong networking abilities have landed the unique opportunity to work with legends in the music industry such as Duane Hitchings (Jimi Hendrix, Miles Davis, Janis Joplin, Jeff Beck, Rod Stewart, Elton John, Cheap Trick, Tesla) David Rivkin/aka: David Z (Prince, Etta James, Jonny Lang, Fine Young Cannibals) Ted Hewitt (Rodney Atkins, Waylon Jennings, Wynonna Judd, T. Graham Brown) and Bobby Taylor (Gretchen Wilson, Diamond Rio, Montgomery Gentry)

Trina Taylor’s powerful and unique voice is captivating. Her lyrics will bring you on a journey filled with testimonies from her own life experiences growing up with traveling musicians, becoming a single mother, and walking away from complete stability for a dream! After listening to Trina’s music you will be left with a sense of hope and inspiration that anything is possible no matter the circumstance. With Folk Rock foundation and eclectic influences she is in a league of her own. The different styles blended create a universal sound capable of reaching a massive audience. Trina’s secret is simply to take the elements of popular music from classic to present and combine it with her innovative and imaginative outlooks and interpretations.

Trina Taylor’s message is about strength, perseverance, believing in yourself, and never letting circumstance dictate your life. Trina’s songs have strong connotations both literal and underlying of finding your path, staying the course, and fulfilling your purpose. Trina delivers this message from her own experiences, the ups and downs of relationships, the search for love and the power of unity. Through these trials and tribulations, the principle lesson Trina strongly heeds is for people to take a look inside their souls and truly focus on bettering themselves; from here, new perspectives arise.

Why Trina?
“She’s got the X-Factor, this indefinable determination. She will make it; it’s just a matter of when. She’s got talent, a big heart and a lot of soul. She’s not afraid to make herself vulnerable if it means becoming a stronger artist.” – Bobby Taylor (Songwriter)

"She has the type of originality I saw in 1968; THAT type of talent. When I first heard Dylan, I listened to how he was singing and what he was singing, it blew me away. That’s how I feel about Trina. When you find someone original like that, you cannot pigeon hole her." - Duane Hitchings (Songwriter, Grammy Winner)

“It was quick, if you’re a natural it just comes, it was there, she just needed someone to bring it out. I liked the material, the way she wrote, and the way she performed on stage. Her performance is very natural. She’s got the performance, the looks, and the song.” - Tony Novarro (songwriter/guitarist)

"Trina Taylor isn't just passionate about music - she knows the effort and sacrifice that are required, and she's not going to back down. She is extremely hard-working, dedicated, and will do everything necessary to ensure success."-Gregg (The Jam NYC co-owner)

“Trina is incredibly unique, raw, and unschooled. She is untainted by formula writing. If she sticks it out, and keeps uniqueness, she will be huge. It’s easy to find people who can write and sing. But she is too unique.” -Doug Beiden (Producer)

“In Nashville, everybody is talented. Talent is important, but other factors are far more important: Having the drive, and being goal-oriented. Trina has a lot of drive, and has all these resources available. Nothing can stop her.” -Ted Hewitt (Producer)

Hi Trina, Just wanted to let you know I just finished a song I've been writing called "DAD". It's about my relationship with my father. He Passed in 1990. That's how long it took me to write this song. I hope you'll give it a listen and tell me what you think. Thanks for your friendship. Take care. Ray

I’ve been a music journalist for more than 10 years. Over the years, many artists and managers have asked me what the best way to break into the European music market is.

Here are some things you can do:



Publish artist press releases, news, and tour dates to the CountryHome Forum on MySpace, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , CountryHome Forum is part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine. Everything you publish to the CountryHome Forum will be published in my weekly Newsletter which has over 80,000 readers.



Publish artist interviews in English to http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazineInterviewsEnglish , interviews in French to http://groups.myspace.com/InterviewsAvecCountryMusicStars and interviews in German to http://groups.myspace.com/CountryMusikInterviews . All these groups on MySpace are part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine.



Send me CDs and DVDs for review and set up an artist interview with me. All reviews and interviews will be submitted to the magazines I'm writing for. More information for which magazines I'm writing can be found at http://www.MySpace.com/ChristianLamitschka



Upload artist videos to http://www.MyVideo.de and http://www.ClipFish.de . Both websites are like http://www.YouTube.com and uploading videos is free. The websites are completely in German. If you don’t speak German and need assistance, I will help you open an account and upload a video for 25 Euro. Each additional video upload for the same artist name and at the same video website is 10 Euro.



If you have more questions about the European music market or about any of the information I send to you today, please contact me at Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de too.

Hi Trena, Hope all is great on your end. Sundays audition was a blast. I'm now the new bassist and back up vocalist for HEDON. They are an Alternative/Hard Rock band out of Albany N.Y.. I have a lot of work ahead of me to cram the HEDON material, but it will be worth it. They are a great band with some awesome players, and they are all around great guys on top of it. Take care and I hope to hear from you, when you get a chance. Cheers. Ray

Hi Trina, Just stopping by to say hi. Hope you're having a great weekend. I put a new song on my page called "You Said Goodbye". I would love to know what you think of it. How is your music going? I hope you are doing great with it. I also put a different layout on my page. People were having problems accessing my page with the old layout. If you get a chance, stop by sometime. I'd love to hear from you. Take care and have a great week. Cheers. Ray
