Viewers on Tik Tok and Instagram Reels should keep their eye on rising star Taylor Acorn. The Nashville-based artist has been garnering attention for her covers of rock and emo songs as well as her original songs. In March 2021, her acoustic cover of Papa Roachs Scars even caught the attention of the bands guitarist.
Some other songs Acorn has covered on Tik Tok include Numb by Linkin Park, Helena by My Chemical Romance, Bloody Valentine by Machine Gun Kelly, Bulletproof Love by Pierce the Veil and Hear You Me by Jimmy Eat World. None of these covers have been released on any streaming platforms, but they show Acorns range as an artist and show the impact these songs have had on her. Vic Fuentes, lead singer of Pierce the Veil, gave his approval for Acorns cover of Bulletproof Love on his Tik Tok account, which got tweeted by the bands record label, Fearless Records.
In late March, Acorn released her original song True Crime. Its a hauntingly beautiful song about still being in love with the person who stole your heart. Anyone who has had their heart broken but is still experiencing those lingering feelings will be able to relate to the lyrics. The song is perfect to play with all the windows down on a nice summer day, or while walking around in the rain crying.
Even though the song has roughly under 200,000 plays on Spotify, its bound to become one of her hits. In an Instagram caption, Acorn shared, From recording vocals for the first time to hearing it on the radio for the first time … the day Andrew Pacheco and I wrote this song we truly believed we had created something so special and I am overwhelmed with love and gratitude. Thank you guys so much for streaming True Crime, I havent been this excited since 2017. This song, as well as her earlier releases, is just the beginning for Acorn. She is here to stay and is sure to produce more hits in the future.
