…and the first guest of BTS 2.0 is Julian Taylor!

After a successful career with his band ‘Staggered Crossing’ the last few years have seen Julian thrive as a solo artist, and he isn’t slowing down yet.

With his new album, “Pathways” dropping on September 27th, I got to sit down with Julian at the start of his UK tour.

We dove into his musical family, the differences in band v solo, the UK Country crowds, and of course, the entire new album, including the title track, a duet with Alison Russell.
