West Taylor is a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer (Moe Reen, Sean Marshall, Gilded Sun). Growing up on Deer Creek outside of Mt. Sterling, Ohio, Taylor was heavily influenced by the Appalachian voices he heard in the church as he looked up to the archetypal singing cowboys he and his grandfather watched on TV. West continues the reverberation of his love for Mountain Music and the Country cassettes his family listened to on the road..
‘Available Parts’, his debut album produced by Jesse Henry is out now!

“(Available Parts) is a panoramic view of folk and older style country music and as you get further into the album, the tunes get richer with meaning” - Elise Cady (Americana Highways)
“That same sense of promise amid hard times carries through Available Parts. And even in those moments when the musician stares down heartbreak, he does so a warm, inviting musical tone, his songs kissed with sunlight despite the encroaching dark.” - Andy Downing (Matter News)
“The truth comes out in his singing voice. He means what he sings” - Tom Brosseu (The Great American Folk Show)
