Lansing teen Taylor Taylor to play Common Ground

Emanuele Berry/WKAR

At age eight, Lansing native Taylor Taylor asked for guitar lessons.  Since then she’s put her lessons to good use, pursuing a music career, performing all over Michigan and the U.S.  This week, the 16-year-old will take the stage at Common Ground.  Taylor spoke with Current State about her songwriting methods, school and her musical inspirations.
