We had the good fortune of connecting with Christopher and Taylor from Each Day and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Christopher, why did you decide to pursue a creative path?
We are pursuing an artistic career because we feel called to it, and it gives us fulfillment. Waking up, and knowing it is your job to create something meaningful to the soul is a fantastic way to start the day. It’s daunting sure, but great to know that our work doesn’t just make life easier, hopefully it can impact people in a deeper way that grows them as an individual. Whether that is because they have new perspective, were able to cope with something, or are just simply in a better mood.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?

Each Day is a musical group founded by Taylor Oechsel and myself, Christopher Marszalek. We started Each Day with the mission to “help the world feel a little less lonely.” We are what we like to call a “alternative folk band.” Which is pretty much just playing folk music with modern twists. Our goal is to encourage the individual through our music. Through joy, thought provoking lyrics, a catchy beat, or simply a sad song that let’s the listener know they are not alone in how they feel.

We started in 2018 and have been going strong since then. It hasn’t been an easy road. We have lost members along the way, but we have also grown into a strong duo act. (oh, and we got engaged this year;)

We want the world to know that no matter where you are or who you are, you are loved and cherished. You are not alone and tomorrow is a new day. “Each Day has enough trouble of it’s own” so take it one day at a time.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.

Well, we have a few options!

We are suckers for theme parks so honestly, a whole day would probably be spent at Six Flags Great America. Ain’t nothing like a good Churro and Roller Coaster.

We are also what some might call “Outdoorsy” so heading south to Starved Rock for a day or two to Hike, Swim, whatever the season calls for.

Speaking of seasons, if it’s winter, heading up to Granite Peak for a day or two is something we do nearly every year. Getting some good snowboarding in and ending the day in an outdoor hot tub is an ideal weekend for us.

And lastly, the most realistic and frequent thing on our list is heading to the local Pub. We are both Europeans and feel quite at home sitting in a wooden booth, with dark wood, good conversation, folk music in the background and a beer in hand. (Fish and chips or cucumber sandwiches don’t hurt either)

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
This will be dedicated to our friends and family. The ones who continue to support us through highs and lows. They are at the shows with hundreds of people, and at the shows where it is just them.
