Skyfactor

Skyfactor is a New York City-based acoustic-rock band formed about twenty years ago on a rooftop in the East Village. The band came together when longtime friends Bob Ziegler (vocals) and Jason Taylor (drums) joined forces with brothers Jon and Cliff Rubin (guitar, bass). Known for their thoughtful songwriting and tight ensemble cohesion, Skyfactor has built a loyal fan base through performances at iconic NYC venues and appearances on shows like MTV’s ‘Teen Mom’ and Adult Swim’s 'The Eric Andre Show.' Their music blends memorable melodies with edgy dynamics, creating a sound that takes listeners on an emotional journey.

Their latest album, *Master Plan*, showcases the band's evolution with more ambitious songwriting and production, featuring guest musicians like keyboardist David Cook (Taylor Swift, Benson Boone). The album has been praised for its emotional honesty and timeless feel, standing out in today's music landscape as a refreshing return to well-crafted, soulful music. Tracks like the title song “Master Plan” and “Airport” evoke feelings of reflection, nostalgia, and hope, making this release a heartfelt companion for moments of introspection. If you enjoy artists like Mt. Joy or Gregory Alan Isakov, Skyfactor’s nuanced indie-rock vibes are definitely worth a listen.
