Taylor Van Zant Music

This is a new song I wrote that's about feeling like you're on the verge of some sort of change but not quite there and how important having a partner in life can be to get through the rough patches in between things. The song is up on Soundcloud and will be on Spotify later. https://soundcloud.com/taylorvanzant/best-thing-i-know?si=12605851b86a47e1ba6b7a88c6da18f8&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

I wrote this song a little while ago. It seems to me these days there is a lot of "spiritual" advice that goes out into the world through books and podcasts and I personally find that, even though it is helpful to think positive and focus the mind, the physical limitations of life still exist and can sometimes feel like an uphill battle.....also I like doing hill runs and so this song is in some ways literal for me.

My wife wrote the lyrics to this song and I put them to music. Local news outlet @kelowna10 put this video together, which I greatly appreciate. #burninghome #kelownabc #kelowna10 #taylorvanzant

My wife wrote the lyrics to this song recently and I put them to music. I'm very spoiled to be able to write music with the person I love. This song is about the fires affecting our community at the moment and about how the community has come together during this time.

There's been a lot of Alien talk all over the place lately and Radiohead is my go to Alien-thought band so this seemed like a good choice today. Do Aliens like Radiohead?

I've watched Breakfast and Tiffany's enough times so this seemed like a good choice. Also with my throat a little dry from all the smoke in the air it seemed like a good choice for my throat...or maybe not.

This is a cover I recently learned and while I do like the original, I do prefer the Chris Cornell version of this song, mainly just because I love his tone of voice. Two great artists that aren't around anymore sadly.

What an amazing song from one of Canada's greatest.

This is a new original I've been working on recently.

This is an original I've been working on for a little while now and finally feel happy with.

this has been a great song to play out in the heat

This was a request at a performance a while ago and one I was glad to finally learn.

Another request today. I appreciate all the requests as it makes me keep adding to my setlist and improving.

This was another request so please keep more coming so I can keep adding to my set lists.

If AI does any more of our work online will we even be needed for the internet or will we just be visitors in a digital robot world? Done through the madness that is Wonder Dynamics

This was a request from my show at the Canner Brewery in Penticton. Made me feel foolish to realize I didn't know any Kurt Cobain covers.

This was a request from my Uncle and one I was happy to learn.

This was a request from my Uncle Graham. So sad to have lost such a legend. Also I love the Depeche Mode cover of this song: https://youtu.be/pBv_obttTSo

I learned this because my daughter has been having a real Jim Henson binge and I love Brett McKenzie.
