As an ardent pop fan, life in an indie band became stifling, she explained. “If you can’t be yourself, you go crazy, in any facet of life. I know it was just a band but I went crazy, I couldn’t be myself. It’s hard being from Rotherham and saying this but I’m an artist, I wake up every day and want to make art. I was having to make art through someone else’s lens.” In a four-star review, NME wrote: “Assured and unapologetic, it’s charged with a dark, smirking wit that’s impossible to turn away from, and achieves an incredibly impressive feat: not only does Self Esteem detail the fear, uneasiness and anger of being a woman – keys clutched between our fists – but also manages to make us laugh at the sheer absurdity of being forced to navigate a world that has, quite unbelievably, normalised misogyny.”

Listening to Self Esteem songs, it does feel as though Taylor has the answers that a lot of people are searching for, particularly as we question what we prioritise in a post-Covid world. It is hard-won knowledge, though. As a child of the 80s, a woman and a pretty solid Libra, she “learned to survive by putting everyone else’s needs before mine”, which led to a lot of anger and frustration. “That caused quite a lot of difficult mental health journeys.”Self Esteem: When we met I was in my old band and very unhappy, so an opportunity in anything else felt like a way out. As a kid I was obsessed with doing musical theatre but that dream turned into being in an indie band where I ultimately felt creatively stifled. Theatre seemed like an escape, and while I’m still fannying around with it, now that my actual career is finally more galvanised, its power is fading. Finally not being desperate made everything better… I stopped trying to have a hit and then had one Self Esteem SE: The gatekeeping in theatre is crazy, there’s so much in it that is traditional. I used to be very into the idea that someone would see something in me, but now I’m sure of what I’m doing. For the most part music is the best art form for me because I can have the idea in the morning and be playing it at the bar that night. I didn’t fully understand that when we met.
