Taylor Martin’s debut album Engine will appeal to anyone who likes folk and Americana (think Bob Dylan, Tom Waits, etc), especially with gravelly vocals and lively acoustic guitar. Based in Asheville, NC, which has been voted Craft Beer City USA several times, the young musician regularly performs at breweries and craft beer bars. He knows how to craft a tune that will have you bobbing your head, tapping your feet and sipping your brew slowly. Engine has a great variety of sound and feels complete, start to finish. Like a great beer, you won’t tire of it.
