Julian Taylor is a Canadian singer-songwriter. Formerly associated with the band Staggered Crossing, he has continued to record and perform as a solo artist since that band's breakup in 2007

Persistence and a never-give-up, hard-working ethic are at the core of his accomplishments. He is an award-winning Canadian singer-songwriter who began his music career as a teenager playing at open stages around the greater Toronto area. Those humble beginnings have led him down a storied path that includes the release of nine albums and countless live shows.

A true music fan and accomplished performer, Julian displays a raw emotion on stage and in the studio that is palpable. His distinct vocal delivery gives unique expression to his well-crafted songs, resulting in highly energetic and incredibly entertaining performances.

His song "Something to Live For", which he wrote and performed as a duet with Jessica Vigars, was featured in a 2007 episode of Degrassi: The Next Generation. He's also had song placed in TV such as Elementary starring Lucy Lui, Haven and Younger starring Hilary Duff,

He now fronts the Julian Taylor Band.
