Jules Taylor is an American singer-songwriter and record producer from Texas. He spent 20 years living, performing, and working in Nashville and New York before returning to Corpus Christi. His band, The String Breakers, are a collective of the finest Country and Bluegrass musicians in South Texas."His vocals are as weathered as an old highway sign and as inviting as your favorite mom and pop diner... Overall, the collection is the musical equivalent of the Great American Novel: a work that captures what it means to be human – the shortcomings and the triumphs, the heartaches and the joys." - Paula Cummings, NYSMusic.com
"A kind of high-drama ambient American rock with equal parts grit and ether. Its affinities are many: Wilco, Calexico, Ryan Adams, Drive-by Truckers, Neil Young…do I need to continue? What the references don’t necessarily suggest is how nicely crafted and layered these relatively crunchy, hard-rocking tracks are: dark, shimmering, electric desert snarl; good stuff, well-played and even-better-conceived. It is not hard to imagine any of these songs showing up in a stylized modern Western." - John Burdick, Hudson Valley One
"Taylor’s economy of melody and intuitive feel for the shape of verses and phrases recalls such heroes as Dylan and Van Zandt. Despair, dissolution, and an occluded sweetness are the very DNA of these dark-side Americana ballads. Built to travel, the sparse arrangements comprise a delightfully ratty strummed acoustic; generous and articulate steel guitar; and Taylor’s lone, craggy voice, which proves to be full of surprising nuance in this intimate setting. Whiskey Clear is whole-cloth and all-in conceptually. It doesn’t take but a few minutes for it to dispel any suspicions of stylized or affected honky-tonk noir. The cat really means it."
