Leeds, United Kingdom (2006 – present)

The Rosie Taylor Project is a six piece band based in Leeds, UK, though none of the band are called Rosie nor covet the surname Taylor. It is a moniker the band admires for a number of reasons but choose not to discuss too openly. (For ease, gentle reader, I shall hereon refer to The Rosie Taylor Project simply as ‘the band’). The band spent its first year playing shows with talents such as Midlake, Camera Obscura and Jeffrey Lewis which pleased the band no end. A debut single ‘Black & White Films’ followed which was made possible by the good people at Bad Sneakers Records, the music video for which could regularly be seen on MTV2 at start of the day/end of the night depending on your angle. The band spent the closing months of 2007 with producer Richard Formby recording an 8-track record titled ‘This City Draws Maps’ which can be found between the likes of Robyn and Josh Rouse in record stores on account of its Bad Sneakers release in May 2008. With a drummer and new lead guitarist in place, a national tour followed the release of the by now critically acclaimed record and it was a terrific time. The band is presently writing new material for a 2009 LP release inspired by these words, accredited to Woody Allen: ‘I am thankful for laughter, except when milk comes out of my nose’
