John Taglieri Finds His Voice on New Single
With new music in the form of his new single ‘Talking To Myself Out Loud’, Taglieri returns to release a very personal song. Taking five years off from releasing music due to vocal cord damage, as well as life and being a dad, the new single speaks to a vulnerable singer learning to find his identity and voice again as an artist. A very personal song, it's unlike anything Taglieri has released before.
John shares with PWA:
“With the vocal damage I have, and being told by the best Doctors out there that it’s irreparable and I was done as a vocalist, there were a lot of late nights looking in the mirror telling myself that I wasn’t done and I would find a way back. It took five years and a lot of musical introspection, but I never gave up.This is the most open and honest I’ve ever been on a song. I wrote this song almost a year ago, and wrote lyrics for it three times, but it just never felt right. It was an uptempo rocker but something isn’t clicking. I brought the song to one of my closest friends and a brilliant musician and producer, Munk Duane. He changed the arrangement to the slower feel and all of a sudden, it made sense. Then the lyrics jumped out at me from the 3 sets I had…almost like puzzle pieces. I’d said what I wanted, but just in different places. It took Munks’ view of it for me to see them.”
The last time he put music out his daughter was not even one year old. Recently John and his wife celebrated their daughter’s sixth birthday and their son's 1st Birthday and it’s given him a new perspective on life. “Becoming a dad is the single greatest thing I’ve ever done. Nothing else comes close and my kids bring new passion to my life in every way. I definitely am more driven than ever to succeed and make sure I can give my family the life they deserve to have.’
