Celebrated Canadian musician Julian Taylor releases 'Seeds' video
17 September 2022
Award-winning Americana/ folk singer-songwriter Julian Taylor releases his new video for single Seeds which premiered on Amplify Music Magazine. Seeds is taken from forthcoming album ‘Beyond The Reservoir’ via Howling Music / Warner Music / ADA due for release in October.
“S.E.E.D.S,” which stands for “Somehow Everyone Eventually Dreams Someday,” was inspired by Taylor waking up to a text that his cousin sent him the morning after the announcement in Kamloops, where 215 uncovered remains of buried Indigenous children were discovered at a former Residential school. Says Taylor, “Her text simply read, George Floyd and Kamloops, with a tear emoji, and following that, ‘They tried to bury us, but they didn’t know we were seeds’.” These very words became the chorus of the song.
