Literally the 6th member of KL with everything she has done and continues doing for the band! Huge driving force for the band. And always so kind and professional the times I saw KL live and was faced with her. Big up to this bad ass ❤

[@supremexruler]

finally! the backbone of KL on a pod!

[@niceshowdude4496]

So good to hear the perspective of a crew member! Respect to all who’s working their asses of behind the scenes 🫡

[@DigitalBath306]

lmao "shower podcasts" is so relatable

[@tacojack2982]

I met her at a show in Dallas last year. She was working hard running that merch table and still took the time to shake my hand! She’s great

Taylar *’secret weapon’* Glasgow

[@AntonioMartinez-jz2ck]

The lighting at the KL show in Austin last week was fuckin top tier! This is a sick interview!

[@aaronpugh8365]

My friend and I were recently behind the boards for the Detroit show. I think we spent half the show just watching Taylar do her magic, she absolutely kills it. Can't wait to see KL in with Slipknot and what she brings to that tour!

[@bunnychacha]

Really amazing work.

[@MazChuga]

This was very inspiring and insightful. I can appreciate Taylor's views on giving people the benefit of the doubt when you are in a space with people who don't look like you. I'm usually a sore ph uckin thumb at shows, but i show up and represent 😎 Can't wait to see kl and smtb live this week!

[@asmr.clover]

Just recently started getting into KL and now i’m going to see them on the 21st! Talk about inspiring womennn, loved this podcast!

[@abbytu5906]

Omg! I’m a global studies major!! So fun to see others with the same interest 🫶 loved this podcast :)

[@monsterkink]

Watching Tay at work at the few KL gigs I've been to was insane; how is someone so good at everything?! Was super stoked seeing this announced, exciting to watch and hear her talk about how she experiences it all! ❤

[@jaxon6444]

I’ve always wanted to ask for a picture with Taylar at a show but thought it would come off as weird haha. I’ll have to ask next time.

[@jborreggine8759]

Thank you for everything you do Taylar! We appreciate you!

[@bunnychacha]

Taylar, the lighting for the current tour is genius. The trees and the lighted cross. You made a large venue feel close. You also really made the show suspenseful, aggressive, shocking. I loved it. It was theatrical and I got happily lost in screaming. I’m a 51 year old female drummer looking for people to play hardcore with in the off chance any one reads this, I’m outside Nashville.

[@bunnychacha]

I drive from Nashville to Louisville to Cincinnati on the regular and those lit up crosses on the side of the road along the way mean something more to me now. It’s reaching out I see now. Benevolence

[@hamstersniffer18]

I adore her.

[@daitanfilms]

One of the best lighting engineers around just now for me, timing is always perfect and suits the vibe completely.

[@CalebHimself]

Love hearing the behind the scenes and the team effort that goes into these insane shows which I can't even see because I'm too busy moshing and experiencing the show itself.

[@classicbananamilk]

big up taylar

[@11valdano]

We need lighting in sync with music these days? What is this, techno?
