Henry Taylor is a Kitchener-Waterloo-based singer-songwriter with five studio albums, gearing up to release his sixth entitled Sweet Thunder on October 25th. For more than a decade, he has been working with songwriting partner Monique Montgomery and recently with award-winning songwriters in Nashville, Tennessee including Cory Lee Barker, Mark Barnowski and Ri’chard Trest.
His music is considered Americana with a mix of rock, blues, folk, and country. The uplifting single, “Shoebox of Money,” is a narrative about freedom and justice for a woman, delivered in country rock ‘n’ roll fashion.
I wrote “Shoebox of Money” with Monique and Ri’chard. We were in Nashville pitching MC1 and playing shows at Johnny Cash’s Storytellers and The Bluebird Cafe when Ri’chard invited us to his home studio in Old Hickory. We came up with this beauty after homemade beignets in his kitchen. It was inspired by a Neil Young lyric off the Greendale album, from the song “Carmichael,” in which someone finds money in a shoebox. – Henry Taylor
