Best known as the drummer, backing vocalist, and occasional lead vocalist for British rock band Queen, Roger Taylor has left an indelible mark on the music industry. Born on 26 July 1949 in Dersingham (near Kings Lynn), Norfolk, UK, Taylor's talent and passion for music have made him a respected figure in the industry.

Throughout his career, Taylor has not only showcased his exceptional drumming skills but also contributed to Queen's iconic harmonies with his backing vocals. His occasional lead vocal performances have captivated audiences worldwide. With his unique style and stage presence, he has become a beloved member of the legendary band.

In addition to his work with Queen, Taylor has collaborated with various artists such as The Cross, Brian May, Freddie Mercury, and Paul Rodgers. His musical versatility is evident through these collaborations and showcases his ability to adapt to different genres.

Outsider is the ltest solo album from rock legend Queen's Roger Taylor. With much of Outsider recorded during lockdown, this new album finds Taylor in reflective mood. Across the record he conveys a palpable sense of seclusion, concerns over the passing of time, and tellingly, dedicates it “to all the outsiders, those who feel left on the sidelines”. A highly personal project, Outsider’s instrumentation is almost entirely performed by Taylor, with his largely restrained vocals matching the album’s contemplative ambience. But Taylor does cut loose along the way with a foray into some hard-riffing blues-rock as well as an adrenalin charged big surprise retread of a classic 1965 novelty song, which is exactly the fun on earth we need in these challenging times.
