Fighting Gravity is a pop anthem breakup song about the tragic premonition that a relationship is unsalvageable- that all your efforts to save it just show it can't work. It's the moment you pull the eject lever instead of crashing in a doomed attempt to fly...

Heartbeat drums punctuate heartbreak in reflective verses, searching piano riffs echo with desperate hope, and the anthemic chorus explodes like nosediving plane in a mayday call.

"We're only fighting gravity... Some people weren't made to fly."

If truth is a hard to-come-by commodity, singer/songwriter Michael Taylor has an antidote. The southern native's honest voice is at the very core of his music. Southern born, mid-west raised and now Nashville-bound, this musical storyteller proudly wears his heart on his sleeve. His songs weave human emotion through a transcendent voice and a stunning instinct for melody.

Working with Australian wunderkind producer Andrew Furze, he spent months crafting his debut EP, collaborating closely with pop luminary Hayley Warner (Katy Perry, Tori Kelly). The result is a stunning debut that blends sharp pop sensibilities with the finest tradition of Americana folk and rock. Petty-ish grooves, Hozier-like gospel influences and a Shawn Mendes-esque pop smarts - it’s a compelling combination.

Born in the heart of southern Virginia, raised in Minnesota and now plying his trade in Nashville, Michael Taylor is an exciting new talent who’s journey in some ways is just beginning.
