His falsetto is possibly altered somewhat during production, and accentuated by the simple instrumentals, just guitar and tambourine. The track has a fresh, raw feel to it, as if it&#8217;s been recorded while having a jam session (and maybe a reefer or two) with a group of friends.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The second track, &#8216;Love You&#8217;, is a bit more in the &#8220;freak out far out&#8221; style that we associate with Syd Barrett &#8211; lots of experimental synths, guitar, percussion, and &#8211; we think &#8211; maybe a kazoo as well. It&#8217;s upbeat, fun, funky, and downright frivolous. We liked it a lot.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The twin release comes on the back of Hollingsworth full length album &#8216;Tap Dancin&#8217; Daddy&#8217;, which he released on Full Moon Records. The house musician in a number of bars in his home town, Taylor also works part time in a restaurant, as well as an Uber\/Lyft driver. He&#8217;s quite alright with his lack of recognition around the country, and truth be told, probably prefers it that way. He says,<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cAt this point in time, with the music world the way it is, I don\u2019t think I even consider myself a musician, more a folk artist of sound.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">You can find out more about Taylor Hollingsworth and his music online on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/taylorhollingsworth.bandcamp.com\/\">Bandcamp<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/taylorhollingsworthmusic\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/thetaylorhollingsworth\/\">Instagram<\/a>, and his <a href=\"https:\/\/taylorhollingsworth.org\/\">Official Website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Lo Fi and Lo Fried\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/6YZn9RyJjZolLfo5DAtaTu?si=wpa8PGkGSUqBfdnl2gZMiQ&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Birmingham Alabama&#8217;s Taylor Hollingsworth is nothing if not retro.
