If you’re going to take notes on how to be a badass in business (and life in general), Alicia Taylor is a great person to take them from.

I have to admit, your girl got nervous ahead of this interview. Alicia Taylor continues to make a name for both herself and her Cherry Bombs in the rock world. I’ve been a fan of hers for a while because she embodies what a lot of young women in rock want to be. We want to look amazing, celebrate our talents, be badass individuals, and continue loving (and celebrating) the music that no one else seems to understand. We’re like our own little club, ya know?

She’s a force to be reckoned with. In fact, you probably already know her thanks to Corey Taylor (if I have to tell you who he is, you don’t come here often enough) of Slipknot and Stone Sour. He’s her awesomely supportive husband who is mentioned briefly during our conversation too.

Alicia was excited to talk all things Cherry Bombs, our mutual love of rock and metal, and she offered some majjjjor keys when it comes to finding confidence boosters. I can’t thank her enough for her time. Take a listen!

Cherry Bombs are touring soon! Look for them to come to a city near you.
