Award-winning Americana/ folk singer-songwriter Julian Taylor releases new single ‘Wide Awake’, taken from forthcoming album ‘Beyond The Reservoir’ via Howling Music / Warner Music / ADA due for release in October.
Of the single, Julian explains - “So many people close to me had been dealing with loss in their lives. I was feeling for them. I had been dealing with my own thoughts and feelings about who I am and what’s important to me. I’ve made a lot of mistakes in my life. I deal with feelings of regret. Sometimes, I unintentionally live inside my own head too often and those thoughts don’t really help me with my own mental stability, and those thoughts have caused people around me harm as well. I now know that what I think about has a lot to do with my own happiness, and the energy that I put out into the world. I now know that I am perfect in all my imperfectness, and that everything that has happened needed to happen exactly the way that it did. Who I am and where I come from means so much because of the struggle that it took for my family to get here in the first place. What I have done and where my thoughts and actions have take me is important because it helped shape who I am and who I continue to become. We are interwoven and we are all so fortunate to be a part of the universal fabric of life. When I look at things that way, I am so grateful for everything and for everyone who has ever shown me love. I can only hope that I have repaid the favour in some way.”
