Gavin Taylor's Muffled Sirens

“I started an alternative grunge band called <a href="spotify:artist:0lCYi7CLIlvvMqrzgAmBQ8" data-name="Treason 58">Treason 58</a> (named after the school bus stop),” he said. “It was four boys who lived within walking distance, practicing and playing shows in small venues. We started small but eventually grew a great, pretty great following. We were just 13, 14 and 15-years-old.”

his performance is art. He’s imbued with a ton of potential to be a name amongst those who inspired his performance.
From cock of the walk posturing a la Mick Jagger, the flamboyant coat changes per song offered a hallucinatory post-grunge era James Brown vibe, and the leaping dramatics from Jim Morrison’s Lizard King stage, Taylor’s learned from the masters. A modern kid, he brings his own mix.

Able to play guitar, piano, bass, drums, ukulele and glockenspiel, Gavin said he also dabbles with synthesizers and any “weird electronic dodads.” It it makes a sound, he said he’ll mess with it and “make it work.” With that at his disposal and time on his hands, he decided to be bold.


“Singing songs, I wrote, in front of people is the greatest feeling on earth for me,” he said. “It’s my everyday motivation. I am so grateful for it. It’s like my heartbeat. And if music is my heartbeat, then my air would be insanely supportive friends and family.”
