Taylor Made again climbing the music charts

By Wendy Holdren Register-Herald Reporter

— West Virginia country music sensation Taylor Made has reached the charts yet again, hitting at No. 21 on MusicRow for their song “Things You Don’t Grow Out Of.”

“I was told that is the highest an independent label has made it on the charts in over 10 years,” band member Greg Duckworth said.

Duckworth, alongside his other band members and siblings Wendy Williams and Brian Duckworth, traveled to Nashville this week to record a new song, “That’s What Life Is,” which will be released early next year.

While in Nashville, Taylor Made also took part in MusicRow Live, which is a radio show that broadcasts to some of the biggest Billboard stations.

They sang alongside JT Hodges and Wade Hayes during the show.

Hayes invited them to sing “Old Enough to Know Better” and some harmonies.
