Taylor Byrne is a multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter, and frontman of the Franco-Irish ensemble The Celtic Social Club. Having toured extensively across Europe with the group, the 23-year-old artist is now carving out a thriving solo career in his native Ireland.
Following a string of acclaimed singles ('Alexandra', 'Bedroom Plans') and sold-out headline shows, Byrne released his debut EP, Someone Had to Stay, in May 2024. Produced by Matt Winston, the five-track collection delves into the theme of emigration from the perspective of those left behind. From the melancholic title track to the restless energy of '22 & Feelin’ Sorta Aimless' and the cathartic swell of 'London', the EP highlights Byrne’s versatility—balancing raw emotion with a distinctive, cohesive sound.
A dynamic and magnetic performer, Byrne brings an infectious energy to the stage—whether backed by his four-piece band or standing alone. With a flair for the theatrical and an unabashed commitment to making each performance a spectacle, he fully embraces the title of ‘showman’—at every possible (in)convenience.
