Taylor Rae (from the album Mad Twenties available as an independent release) (by Lee Zimmerman)
Taylor Rae belies any sense of newcomer status with her debut album Mad Twenties thanks to a delivery that’s as poised, confident, and assured as any artist claiming far more years of professional proficiency. Despite her relative youth, this proud 20-something shows she’s adept at a wide variety of singing styles, from Country to Cabaret, perfect Pop to Easy Listening, and, in fact, practically anything and everything that falls in-between. Her singing style conveys a marked maturity — at once smooth, sensual, captivating and convincing, like a twilight chanteuse who’s easily able to captivate any crowd simply on the strength of her presence and persona. It’s that cocksure attitude that allows Taylor Rae to make an immediate impression, making it clear at the outset that she’s ready to be taken seriously. One moment she’s spirited and sassy, the next she’s plying a quiet caress. That independent attitude is summed up succinctly with “Wait and See”, a song that reflects her true intents. In fact, there’s an abundance of offerings that define her just as distinctly — “Taking Space”, “Windows”, “Home on the Road”, and “Leaving You” among the many — and given the fact that she penned them all offers further proof that even now, her talent is fully formed. That alone contributes to the perception that Rae is a remarkable artist with the talents and tenacity to make an indelible impression, now and in the future. Eloquent and expressive, she shows an instinctive understanding of just what it takes to succeed, qualities that should assure her success in today’s modern musical arena. Beyond that however, Taylor Rae emits a truly timeless quality, one that transcends any momentary sound or style. Her confidence is confirmed throughout, adding to the impression that she’s fully vested in her efforts and committed to sharing her skills with whoever’s willing to listen. Youthful indulgence is often a precarious proposition, but with Mad Twenties, Taylor Rae makes it clear, she’s ready for the world.
