Bailey Taylor

Being the niece of Pittsburgh native and legend, B.E. Taylor, Bailey Taylor was introduced to music at a very young age and fell in love with performing because of him. Having told him right before he went to be with the Lord back in 2016 “I’m going to follow in your footsteps, and make you proud,” Bailey has been doing just that since that day. After graduating high school in 2018, she moved to Nashville to continue pursuing music. Since then, she has been writing and releasing her own music and performing out whenever she can. With Country/Pop being her main genre, Bailey also has that “Taylor Christmas love” in her. She has always wanted to record a Christmas album in honor of her uncle. This year, after a few years of it being in the works, Bailey is set to release her Debut Christmas album, “Christmas Love,” November 25th. “I had the privilege of working on this whole record with Anthony Rankin, who played in the B.E. Taylor Christmas shows for many years; his wife, Kate Rankin; and B.E.’s son/my cousin, B.C. Taylor. I never got a chance to write with Uncle Bill, so getting to now write and work with B.C. and people he loved and admired is a really neat feeling. We could all feel his presence every time we got together in the making of this album. He would be so proud and excited for this project.”

This is Bailey’s fourth year being a part of “Shaker Woods - Christmas In The Woods.” “I always loved coming to watch my uncle perform at this festival, so to be able to stand on the same stage he did is a really bittersweet experience each year. I love fall and I LOVE Christmas, so combining the two makes me one happy girl.” She’s really looking forward to singing some of her favorite Christmas classics AND a few of her own from “Christmas Love” in the beautiful woods again this year, and hopes to get everyone in the Christmas spirit!

Her album “Christmas Love” will be sold near her stage along with a few other items. If you like what you hear, stop on by to pick up your very own Bailey Taylor merch.
