Lexington, Kentucky-based singer/songwriter Kyle Ayres goes by the name Buck the Taxidermist. The inception of this musical project occurred in 2015 when Kyle, then performing with a string band, felt a compelling need to capture his personal musical expressions. Buck the Taxidermist emerged from fragments of songs that had been simmering in Kyle's mind for years. Whether performing with a band, featuring a rotating lineup of Kentucky friends, or going solo, Kyle's creative direction draws inspiration from a mix of contemporary and vintage influences. His musical palette encompasses the modern sounds of The War on Drugs, Wilco, and Dr. Dog, as well as the timeless melodies of classic songwriters like Townes Van Zandt, Paul McCartney, Paul Simon, and Neil Young. The outcome of this fusion varies, reflecting the ebb and flow of Kyle's creative process.
