Buck the Taxidermist

Buck the Taxidermist is the moniker of Kentucky song writer, Kyle Ayres (writer, singer and guitarist) This Lexington rock band began around 2016, drawing inspiration from modern sounds and vintage, simple throwback melodies alike. Blending influences of modern heroes like The War on Drugs, Wilco and Dr. Dog and classic songwriting like Townes Van Zandt, McCartney, Paul Simon and Neil Young the results tend to vary with wherever he finds creation flowing. The group has over the years changed roster several times but always out necessity and amicably. The beauty created from constantly rotating musicians allows the music to stretch and warp.
