Scarlette Rising

Scarlette Rising is the artistic musical wind of one woman, Tonya Taylor. Growing up in a home engulfed in an aurora of music, Tonya began writing and performing music at the age of 10. Life was filled with many obstacles and many losses of loved ones. During her teenage and into adulthood years, her love for God, music, sports, and academic studies kept her mind and spirit uplifted. Known for a gothic twist of combining Rock, Pop, Electric, Metal, and R&B into her music, she expresses the darker side of the pain in her life but with a ray of hope and light. Commented saying, “I only write and sing what I know and have experienced. When I grieve, when I am happy, and when I feel the struggles of close friends or even strangers that touch my heart, I will incorporate that into my music”.
