Brooklyn-based psych-pop musician Attia Taylor released her Jeff Ziegler (Kurt Vile, War on Drugs) produced debut album Space Ghost last Summer on Lame-O Records (Trace Mountains, Slaughter Beach, Dog). Fun and danceable, the album encapsulates all the unique sonic elements that define Taylor's music. Stand out singles include "Basic Economics", "Broad and Cherry", "Dog and Pony Show", and "Space Ghost".
The songs from her Lame-O Records debut Space Ghost sparkled forth from the speakers, swirled around the room, mesmerizing the pindrop-quiet crowd. It was a sublime performance, but also it was Taylor doing what she does best." - John Vettese, WXPN Taylor is a writer, musician, and creative producer who got her start in music through Girls Rock Philly. Her dream pop songs have a distinct lo-fi sound, influenced by musicians such as Melody's Echo Chamber, Broadcast, Mr. Twin Sister, and Laurie Anderson. Space Ghost explores the loneliness of Taylor's childhood, chronicling her stages of growth and healing out of trauma from abandonment. With no one to monitor her, she found refuge in watching hours of cartoons during her youth, and was especially struck by the strangeness of Adult Swim's cartoon Space Ghost Coast to Coast.
Lyrically specific, the record tells Taylor's story of navigating grief, and represents a triumphant finale to years of being trapped in mental introspection and insecurity. Though the subject matter of the songs is heavy, the music itself is colorful and fun, tinged with psych and funk, and reflecting her interest in lush, catchy sounds. Alongside drummer and bassist Corey Carris Duncan (also her bandmate in Strange Parts), Taylor uses multiple analog synths to paint minimalistic elements with clear pop undertones. In addition to her work as a musician, she is the founder of Womanly, a magazine and community empowering women and non-binary individuals to take charge of their health through art and creativity. Passionate about building communities through music, journalism, storytelling and research, Taylor combines social justice and health advocacy to bring inclusive and culturally relevant content to print and digital media.
