In this episode of Ancestral Voices: We Belong, host Kim Wheatley sits down with acclaimed Canadian singer-songwriter Julian Taylor to explore a remarkable musical journey spanning more than 25 years.
From his early days co-founding the alt-rock band Staggered Crossing, to the genre-blending success of the Julian Taylor Band, and now his celebrated work as a solo artist, Taylor reflects on the experiences that shaped his career and creative voice. He shares stories of navigating the music industry, embracing a do-it-yourself spirit, and ultimately reclaiming ownership of his catalogue and legacy.
The conversation also dives into the inspiration behind Taylor’s critically acclaimed solo albums, including The Ridge and Beyond the Reservoir, which earned widespread recognition and award nominations including the Juno Awards, Canadian Folk Music Awards, and the Polaris Music Prize.
Growing up in Toronto surrounded by soul, hip-hop, blues, and alternative rock, Taylor developed a sound that blends roots, folk, and Americana with deeply personal storytelling. In this thoughtful conversation, he reflects on resilience, identity, and the power of music to connect people and communities.
Through honesty, warmth, and decades of artistic growth, Julian Taylor continues to create music that resonates across generations — opening doors for others while staying true to his own voice.
