Taydem Shoesmith is a new artist who fell in love with music from a young age. Her father would sing to her every night and from that sparked an interest in Taydem. She found comfort in writing music during her freshman year of high school. At first she was afraid to show others her music, not wanting to be judged about her thoughts and feelings. But as time went on, she realized that others felt the way she did and knew she should keep sharing her creations.

Her music ranges from singer-songwriter to pop to alternative. She’s wanting to expand and try new genres. Recently, she released a new single “Are You Clapping.” A song about accepting yourself and not letting people change who you are or want to be. Taydem has been influenced by many different artists from many different genres. Her biggest influences are Michael Jackson, Rascal Flatts, Billie Holiday, Sabrina Carpenter, Camila Cabello, and many more.

Alongside her passion for music, she also has a great interest in acting. Her acting debut was in 2020, when she was casted for a role in the short film “In the Dark.” She has been casted as the lead for multiple films, and has created music for films as well. One of those being a theme song for a short series.

The way she feels about music can be summed up in this quote; “Music is my inhaler when life makes it difficult to breathe.”
