"It's been over 10 years since I've seen someone as naturally talented as Taylor Tote."

- David Ivory

Grammy nominated multiplatinum engineer and producer

“Tote’s career has been on a steady ascent for the better part of the last decade and she has matured into a genuine star.”

- Chris Spiewak

Two River Times

"“She is dominating, empowering, strong, soft, sexy, and insanely fun.  Her attitude and stage presence is smooth, sweet, and controlled. However, it can be flipped like a switch to a rock and roll, hell-stomping diva. Her range is one of a rock ‘n’ roll vixen that will send your music senses on the ride of your life."

- The Aquarian Weekly
