Newly signed Curb Records artist Carly Ann Taylor introduces herself with striking emotional clarity on her
label debut, “Why Should I Worry (Remind Me Version)” – a soaring soul-pop anthem rooted in survival,
healing, and hard-earned hope. Based in Southern California, Taylor delivers a refreshed and elevated
recording of the song, showcasing the powerful voice and lived-in storytelling that define her artistry.
Inspired by Taylor’s own journey from trauma to triumph, “Why Should I Worry” serves as both a personal
reminder and a universal message: worry cannot steal what has already been overcome, nor add a single day
to our lives. With warmth, conviction, and emotional depth, Taylor invites listeners into a space of reassurance
and resilience.
Written by Taylor, Splash of Soda, and Randy James Taylor, and produced by Splash of Soda alongside
Joseph Prielozny, the track builds from a timeless soul-pop foundation into a breathtaking crescendo.
Layered with choir vocals and swelling instrumentation, the song allows Taylor’s emotionally charged,
powerhouse vocals to shine as she drowns out anxiety with grace and strength. Drawing comparisons to vocal greats such as Adele and Celine Dion, Taylor’s voice is commanding yet vulnerable – wise beyond her years,
carrying the weight of experience while lifting listeners upward with euphoric release.
Taylor’s story begins far from the spotlight. Born in Hawaii, she grew up in a deeply dysfunctional household
marked by alcoholism, addiction, and abuse. Removed from her home by Child Protective Services at just
seven years old, Taylor endured years of instability, isolation, and feeling profoundly misunderstood. During
this time, music became her refuge – a sacred space where she could sing through pain, process emotion,
and express what words alone could not.
As a teenager, after briefly falling in with the wrong crowd, her life changed irrevocably when her older brother
invited her to move to California. What began as a temporary escape soon became a lifeline.
Realising she could not safely return to the environment she had left behind, her brother and sister-in-law took her in
permanently, providing the stability and care she had never known. That single flight reshaped her future,
creating space for healing, growth, and the songs that would eventually become her voice.
For the first time, Taylor experienced restoration and a sense of belonging. Though leaving her past behind
was painful, the security she found allowed her to rebuild and imagine a future once thought impossible. These
experiences now run through the heart of her songwriting – honest, redemptive, and deeply resonant.
With “Why Should I Worry (Remind Me Version)”, Carly Ann Taylor narrates a journey from dysfunction to
redemption, emerging as an artist defined by emotional truth, vocal power, and an unwavering message of
perseverance. As she steps into this new chapter with Curb Records, her story and her voice are poised to
uplift listeners for generations to come.
