New Album Wonderland And Some Thoughts On Local Music

Hey all!

Soo....this is my first post to the blog on Patch. I am in the Teagan Taylor Trio and I just wanted to talk about our newest album Wonderland.

This is our second album, and we JUST released it.

It has 9 of our originals, one of David Beldock's, and two standards. It was such a blast to go into the studio again and have some fun. We also just had our CD release concert at the 10th Ave. Theatre and Arts Center in downtown SD!  

It was SOOOOO much fun and we had a packed house!!! It was great to see such wonderful support for a local band, like ours. Most people don't really understand what it means to a local musician, for you to take the time to come out and support them! It truly is the BEST thing you can do for a musician (and to purchase their work :)  

If you don't take the time to see local talent, you are diminishing the arts as a whole.  

Think of all the hard work, hours (and years!) of practicing that musicians (and artists in general) do to create such beautiful art. It takes a very special kind of person to go into this field of work: it is hard, tiring, tough, but so damn worth it. Nothing is more amazing than performing for people, giving them all you've got. It is a beautiful thing.

And you can change people, ya know? Performing music for people and people listening to music it a wonderful, magical cirlce of life that just keeps on giving.  So, go out and be a part of that magic. Go see a local band.  Trust me, if you show your love, they will love you right back, unconditionally.
