Bio:
Ottawa singer/songwriter Rory Taillon is a road warrior, touring across the country and back again. Rory is not just an entertainer he’s a performer. It’s just that simple, when Taillon sings everything stops and when it starts again it’s all changed. It’s just that simple, like folk. Press Quotes:
"...I think I can just say for all of us right now: Wow. Again, I'd known about Rory for a while after following him on Instagram, however this track (Welcome) especially impressed me with its passionate delivery, and its increasing intensity. As it builds and builds and builds arriving at this climax where Rory is just alight with this fire unmatched by most artists in the field today. Regardless of their stature. I think I can speak at least for myself that I haven't heard anything that's been that intense in a long while...I implore you to definitely give a listen to this artist because I really think he's going to blow up soon." - Bryson Worden, The Block with Bryson on CIVL 101.7FM “On this new record (Drifting) Taillon has decided to strip away all the clutter in the small and take what little room was available and give it over to his voice. Instrumentation is sparse and the songs are recorded to sit right inside your ear. They are close enough to enter the infinite space of your own head and its in there they find room to stretch and unwind, to swell and loosen. His croon enters your cocoon and he asks questions maybe others are asking as the drifting lulls us; the Whys of this time; in the case of Rory, the whys of touring, of writing, recording, the value of song, of life as an artist. And yet the value lies in his voice quietening those other voices, squeezing them out. Contemplating his doubt overcomes our doubt. In his voice we hear possibility, in his doubt we hear hope.” - Will McGuirk, SlowCity.ca "Drifting is like a dark back alley cafe, lit only by sparse candlelight and Taillon’s voice. The deep timbre of Tallon’s vocals echo off the smoke-filled room, resonating with your bones, urging you to connect with the music. Even if there are others in this imagined ‘cafe,’ Taillon builds a space just for him and the listener with minimalistic accompaniment that is only used to enforce the power of Taillon’s vocals." - Migs Lava, Canadian Beats
