Taylor Roberts of Taproot Talks Band Dynamics and Being Confused For Corey Taylor

Taylor Roberts from Taproot/ Riding With Killers joins me on Talkin’ Rock with Meltdown.
We started off talking about RWK. He explained how the band formed, talked about their debut record, “Full Circle,” and more. He said they’ve done some pretty big shows, but it’s time to bring that band to the forefront. “We’re really getting ready to launch this band in the right way,” he told me.
He talked to me about being a fan of the band and finally becoming a band member. He spoke about how he ended up in Detroit through a band member coming from Mississippi.
When I asked Taproot frontman Stephen Richards and drummer Jarrod Montague to give me some questions for Taylor, they did not disappoint. They told me to ask him about meeting the Kittie in Las Vegas. He was a huge fan growing up as a teenager.
They also told me to ask him about looking like Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor. That was hysterical! I guess he’s been confused for him several times.
In Taproot, he plays guitar, but in Riding With Killers, he’s more upfront. “The challenge of putting myself in the lead singer spot and finally writing about things that have been on my mind and in my head and heart for years is very cathartic, and it’s been a great release.”
