Featuring: Musician Eden Taylor

Eden Taylor is a Calgary-based singer-songwriter blending cinematic alt-pop with soul, blues, folk, and country influences. Known for her powerful vocals and emotionally honest songwriting, she has performed over 300 shows across Canada and the U.S., from intimate songwriter rounds to major festival and theatre stages.

Her debut single Jealousy earned a nomination for Pop Recording of the Year at the YYC Music Awards, while her original music has brought her to Nashville’s iconic Bluebird Café and stages across North America. In 2025, she earned four awards in Nashville, including Best Female Entertainer and Best Country Vocalist.

With a sound inspired by artists like Sheryl Crow and Alicia Keys, Eden creates music rooted in storytelling, vulnerability, and connection — delivering songs that feel both cinematic and deeply personal.
