Keeping somewhat in line with my last post, another one of my favorite "Christian" artists is a man by the name of Steve Taylor. Though he did put out some pretty cheezy music, he had a lot of really great stuff as well. He also was the head of one of the coolest record labels around for a while, Squint Records [Former home to such bands as Sixpence None the Richer, Chevelle, Burlap to Cashmere, and LA Symphony]. That is until he got screwed over when the label was sold out from under him.
Since leaving Squint, there hasn't been much news about Mr Taylor at all, until recently. Apparently he has been working on a movie called "The Second Chance" . It should be interesting, as film making has long been one of Taylors passions, one that he hasn't really ever had the chance to display in any real form. [Other than the independent short films he included with his video collections] My only concern about this new movie is that the "star" is none other than Michael W Smith. Yikes. Fortunately, very few things that Mr Taylor has been involved in have ever sucked. So, lets hope this holds true for the movie.
Christianity Today has an excellent interview with Steve here. And you can find out pretty much anything you would ever want to know about the man at sockheaven.org .
