Bio

Born and raised in the small town of Huntsville, Ontario, Alexis Taylor is both a singer and songwriter of all things country music.  From a young age she showed a great love and passion for music through her songwriting and acoustic guitar playing. “Both my parents are songwriters, and have always been very musical. Music is a part  of me - it has always been in my blood.”  After making her very first trip to Nashville, Tennessee, Alexis decided to make the move to Music City. 

Shortly after, Alexis saw the launch of her international career in Summer 2016 with a tour throughout Scandinavia, opening for renowned singer/songwriter Doug Seegers. “Being able to open for someone as talented and genuine as Doug Seegers along with his incredibly gifted band was an experience of a lifetime,” she says. “The opportunity truly allowed me to grow as a performer, and I am so grateful that  Doug took me under his wing.”   

After releasing her first single in 2018, Alexis has had the opportunity to play at events such as Canadian Music Week in Toronto, CMA Fest in Nashville, and open for artists such as Marshall Tucker Band, Love and Theft, and Meghan Patrick. Alexis has also received numerous nominations and awards such as “Female Vocalist of The Year” at the 2018 Tennessee Music Awards and “Modern Country Vocalist of The Year” at the 2020 and 2021 Josie Music Awards. 

“You hear Alexis Taylor sing and you wonder, why isn’t this woman all over the radio? Then you dig a little deeper and the question changes from why isn;t she on the radio to why isn’t Alexis Taylor a star?” asks Ken Churilla of American Songwriter in an interview with Alexis.

Her last album “Ain’t No Quittin’ You” which was produced by multi-award winning musician, John Willis, included tracks that climbed as far as #15 on Sirius XM radio in Canada. 

As 2023 comes to an end, Alexis releases "DREAMS." written by American singer Stevie Nicks and recorded by the popular rock band Fleetwood Mac for their eleventh studio album. When asked why she chose that particular song to release, Alexis exclaims “I remember getting a song request to play “Dreams” at one of my shows a few years back and I had never played it before.” She goes on to express “…I immediately fell in love with how the song sounded acoustically and knew I had to cover it!” 

With this new release, Alexis hopes to capture the timeless magic of this classic track and share her love for a simplistic, stripped down musical experience.
