Life and career
[edit]After begging his parents for an agent at the age of six, he began landing numerous commercials in television and radio, as well as print. Soon, this transitioned over into supporting TV movie and series roles, including Jimmy Osmond in the ABC biopic Inside the Osmonds, and Eliott in PAX TV's Doc, a series starring Billy Ray Cyrus for which Taylor was nominated for a Young Actor's Award for "Best Performance In A Supporting Role". Taylor also played Cinco, in the Ross Petty pantomime Snow White & The Group Of Seven, acting and singing alongside Canadian Idols including Ryan Malcolm and Billy Klippert, and Glass Tiger frontman Alan Frew.
As a teenager, Taylor was a Top 40 finalist on Canadian Idol.[citation needed] After a spontaneous performance at a music conference, Taylor was discovered by Jimi Hendrix producer Eddie Kramer.[citation needed] That album, produced by Kramer with additional production by Taylor, was released in 2020. The lead single "I Won't Put Up With It", features a music video largely edited and directed by Taylor along with other projects. On the strength of the album, Taylor opened for "Hawksley Workman" won the Kerrville Newfolk Songwriting Contest, and has since toured various times through the US and Canada.
Taylor voices the lead character in the self-titled series Fangbone! (Disney XD), which began airing in 2016, and has a theme song written by Taylor and performed by Peter Driemanis of July Talk. Taylor voiced Luke Stanley in YTV's The Stanley Dynamic (Nelvana/Amaze), which lasted for two seasons.[2]
Other voice roles include Luis in The Future Is Wild (Discovery Kids), Yuki in Beyblade: Metal Fury (Cartoon Network), and Jonas in Bob! The Slob (Teletoon), in addition to supporting roles in series such as The Cat In The Hat, Total Dramarama and Looped!.
