9.15pm - Taynee Lord

Taynee Lord sits upon her vocal throne, producing a heady mix of anthemic hooks and commanding lyrics. Taynee claims to be “No queen bee” but her progress has been sure and steady. So prepare yourself for high octane country twang, walking bass and songs that tuck themselves into a bed of twisted pop.
Taynee Lord gives you music for sunsets and highways from Bristol to Nashville. Once seen never forgotten! https://tayneelord.com/
