With over 1.5M YouTube subscribers and a devoted fanbase built over years as a comedy and gaming content creator, Tabor is pursuing one of his most vulnerable and heartfelt spaces yet: his music.
Raised in a musical family in Louisville, KY, Tabor picked up his first guitar at eight years old, inspired by his mother's voice and his older brother's love of rock. He introduced his audience to that side of himself in 2017 with the single "Bones," followed by his debut EP, About Time, in 2018. That same instinct for melody now anchors an indie rock and alternative pop sound defined by big melodies and unflinching honesty.
Tabor's 2025 debut album, I Hope They Set You Free, marked his most personal work yet, written entirely on his own and brought to life in Nashville, TN with Ken Coomer, former drummer of Wilco. The result is a record about growth, change, and letting go of who he used to be.
Now his newest songs, "Coffee" and "Bleed Me Dry," offer the same raw honesty but wrapped in a more expansive and atmospheric production palette. "Coffee" was produced with Austin Jones, and "Bleed Me Dry" alongside Micah Tawlks (Hayley Williams, Niall Horan, Ben Rector, The Brook & The Bluff, Louis Prince). Together they swing between playful hooks and raw vulnerability, showing a first look at where Tabor's sound is headed next.
