Dylan Taylor draws inspiration from his Kentucky roots and time spent around moonshiners for his latest country song, “Apple Pie Fries.” The track is part of his upcoming record, a project inspired by growing up in the Bible Belt and the stories and experiences that shaped his life.
At the heart of “Apple Pie Fries” is the idea of stepping away from everyday pressure to find space to think, breathe, and work through personal struggles. Dylan describes taking apple pie moonshine and fried potatoes into the middle of nowhere, allowing himself time to let everything out before returning to society feeling more settled and clear-minded.
The song carries a relatable message about the importance of having time and space for reflection, especially in a world where those moments can be increasingly difficult to find. Music becomes another place of escape, giving listeners a chance to travel somewhere peaceful through their headphones.
Dylan created the artwork and videos himself, while Dex Green produced the music, Joe Costa handled engineering, and True East Mastering in Nashville completed the mastering. “Apple Pie Fries” offers a personal glimpse into Dylan’s world while introducing listeners to the wider story behind his upcoming record.
