The backroads of America tell its truest stories. The
heartbreak and heartbeat of the country thumps the loudest in
the cracks between its big cities. A 2021 census in Blanchester,
OH registers the village's population at around 4,230 people.
Nolan Taylor isn't quite sure of the exact number, but he
knows it's small from growing up in this place with his dad and
older brother. His father managed plants and factories, yet
money was scarce and the winters were brutal. Mom battled
addiction and mental struggles, eventually estranging her from
the boys. When he could finally afford a left-handed guitar, he
started to write and record music of his own, grafting hard-
earned wisdom, heart-wrenching memories, and hypnotic
melodies to rustic and ruddy acoustic phrasing.
As a kid, he found solace in music. He discovered The
Grateful Dead through his dad and developed an appreciation for
Pinegrove. Throughout junior high, he studied classic MTV
Unplugged concerts by the likes of Alice In Chains, Pearl Jam, and
Nirvana. Even though he primarily focused on wrestling, working
out, football, and basketball, he finally picked up a left-handed
guitar in high school. After graduating, he spent years gigging
around West Virginia, Virginia, and Kentucky, playing anywhere
and everywhere. In 2023, a video of Nolan performing “68” in the
woods went viral with 2.6 million YouTube views on the Radio WV
YouTube Channel. Achieving virality from obscurity and gathering
millions of streams, he tells a true story all his own via a series of
2023 singles for Atlantic Records, beginning with "Wicked Ways."
