Taylor Horn

Taylor Horn is a beautiful blonde-headed, blue-eyed little 10 year old girl who lives on a farm outside of Kentwood, Louisiana, yes folks it must be in the water here, because this is also Britney Spears hometown.  Taylor, however, does Country music...I guess you could say, one is a little bit country, and the other a little bit rock n' roll if you'll pardon the phrasing from the old Donnie and Marie days!

Taylor loves singing anytime, anyplace, and anywhere! She started singing and writing her own lyrics ever since she can remember.  Her voice coach is Mr. Bob Westbrook of Memphis, Tennessee who is also well known for training such artists as Pop Star Britney Spears, and Pop Stars Lance Bass and Justin Timberlake of N'Sync!

Taylor sings at Charity Events, Nursing Homes, Fairs, Festivals, Fundraisers, Beauty Pageants (as the entertainer), and at Restaurants (Bear Creek Steakhouse, Montpelier, La.), La Carreta's Mexican Restaurant (Hammond, La), and she has even put on a concert for her entire school! She enjoys working with Mr. Bayou Wolfman, a radio personality out of Hammond, La.

Taylor cut her first Demo CD in Memphis, Tennessee. Now she is releasing her very first CD which was recorded in the studios of PeggySawUs Productions, produced and engineered by Mr. Rick Tobey of Hammond, Louisiana. The CD which is entitled "Taylor Horn, Taylor-Made", has now been RELEASED!  She has also now just cut another demo in Memphis for a brand new song...and we'll keep you updated on that.

Taylor has also just returned from Nashville, where she recorded some of the songs of noted Nashville songwriter and producer,  Dinah Brein!  We'll keep you updated on those songs.

"Taylor-Made" shows Taylor's love of a variety of music.
Although, the CD is mostly country-western music, it is peppered with pop tunes. Here is a list of the songs on
Taylor-Made:
1.When God Fearing Women Get the Blues
2. Independence Day
3. How Do I Live
4. Bobby McGee
5. A Broken Wing
6. Bye-Bye
7. Let's Get Loud
8. Bring on the Rain
9. Walking After Midnight
10. Why Haven't I Heard From You
11. I Would've Loved You Anyway
12. The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia


Taylor astonishes audiences when they see this little girl, and then she opens her mouth to sing and out comes this big booming, gravelly voice much like Janice Joplin's was. She is often referred to by crowds as
"Little Janice" or as the "Little Girl With the Great Big Voice".
