Formed in 2014 in Reading, England, the Amazons are best known for hooky rock anthems that bridge the gap between barebones indie sounds and huge arena-rock choruses. In the latest episode of Taylor Soundcheck, Amazons frontman and guitarist joins us in the Taylor studio to talk about his songwriting process and share background on a couple of the Amazons' best-known tracks and perform acoustic versions of "Ready for Something" and "Bloodrush" on a Taylor AD17e Blacktop.
