baylor, aka “the green wheel,” is a philadelphia–based musician whose music both resists and defies easy categorization.

a protean experimental artist who combines lyricism with noise art, arresting stage craft with confrontational polemic, and moments of suspended beauty in a sea of sonic chaos. his crooning lyrics sounds like a songbird that’s been trapped in a cage, but never given up the struggle to escape. baylor finds inspiration from the detritus of the gutter and missives from mars.

in addition to his career as a performing artist, he is the co–revolutionary behind the royalty free music collective and a guitar teacher.
