There’s something pretty magical about Taylor Acorn. Could it be her knack for writing big pop-punk hooks that drew me into her music in the first place? Perhaps. Maybe it’s her ability to connect with relatable themes such as growing up, nostalgia, and fractured relationships that makes her musical case that much more compelling. Taylor Acorn has everything you’d want in a rising songwriter/performer, and she puts it all on full display on her sophomore record called Poster Child. “This record feels very personal but it feels nostalgic at the same time,” Acorn shares about the lyrical theme of Poster Child. “I feel like some songs are kind of on the angry side and are very vulnerable, but there’s also a lot of songs that made me feel really nostalgic for my childhood where you could go to the Warped Tour as a 15-year-old and there’s no worries about that.” By connecting to her past, while still moving her songwriting forward in exciting new directions, Acorn has all the makings of a star burning its brightest at the right moment in time.
