I love community. I love creating stories. I love making art.

I’m an idea machine.

I’m a modern day griot* — a wandering storyteller who sings, who acts, who dances, who creates art in order to translate the human condition.

I find it healing.

I’m a country girl with a city soul.

I’m an adventurous spirit, a traveler made of air.

And I love making lists.

But most of all, I’m a lifelong seeker who continues to learn. And, in some ways, I’ve lived. Perhaps, unconventionally.

So. Here is a collection of discoveries and experiences I’ve had up until now. My aim is to play. To create good, honest, high vibration art, in songs, shapes, and pictures - the most authentic offerings from my corner of the sky.

Thanks for stopping by.

3. Your voice has meaning and is meant to be heard.

“As a part of our series about pop culture’s rising stars, I had the distinct pleasure of interviewing Cloie Wyatt Taylor.

Cloie Wyatt Taylor currently stars as Victoria “Vicky” Sims, best friend and personal assistant to “Lana” (MC Lyte) in Partners in Rhyme, a lively comedy for AMC Networks’ streaming channel Allblk.

From the rural suburbs of Maryland to the streets of New York and beaches of Los Angeles, Cloie is a multi-hyphenate artist entertaining audiences across stage and screen. Beginning in the dance world at the age of three and inspired by hours of watching Annie on repeat, she quickly caught the acting bug and as a young teen landed her first role on the soap opera All My Children. Other notable television guest star appearances include Shameless, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Superstore, Grey’s Anatomy, Law & Order SVU, and How to Get Away with Murder.”
