About Lewis Taylor
Artist Biography
Lewis Taylor is a singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose output is almost as variegated as his fascination with styles that extend from blues and soul to prog rock and psychedelic pop. The London-born musician started in the 1980s as a touring guitarist with the Edgar Broughton Band and first recorded as Sheriff Jack. He reappeared a decade later with Lewis Taylor (1996), featuring the soulful charting singles "Bittersweet" and "Lucky." Taylor intended to follow up with a set closer to Baroque pop than neo-soul, but it was shelved -- later reconfigured as The Lost Album -- in favor of the R&B-rooted Lewis II (2000). After independent recordings and high-profile session work, he retreated from music in 2006, months before Robbie Williams covered his "Lovelight." Taylor returned with Numb (2022), a reminder of his ability to synthesize myriad influences and sound like no one but himself.
