About

Alterna pop singer Taylor Upsahl peppers her conversation with “stoked” and “dope.” She just turned 21 on Thanksgiving, but she speaks like a record industry veteran.

Upsahl has owned 2019, and she’s optimistic about 2020. She’ll celebrate that success with Alt AZ and the “Ugly Sweater Concert Series” by opening for Angels and Airwaves at the Marquee on Wednesday, December 4.

“I’m very excited,” says Upsahl, who performs using only her last name. “I haven’t been home in a minute. Normally, when I come home—especially in the past year—I see as many people as I can. But I’m excited to see everyone around the holidays.”

She better do it now, as she has a busy 2020. Upsahl has several new singles lined up for 2020 and is now working to finalize those tracks. She just released the single “Smile for the Camera.”

“It’s definitely my favorite video to date,” she says. “It was crazy to smash all this stuff. That morning, I said any anger I have I’m putting into this music video. Patrick Lawler, who did the video for ‘Drugs’ too, did it. He’s so amazing. She showed me the concept and I was sold, with all the different colors.”

When she returns from touring, Upsahl immediately heads into writing sessions. She figures this year she’s penned at least 350 songs.

“I’m just trying to put out as many of them as possible,” she says with a laugh. “I just want to share more music with my fans.”
