Water and Sand = Veteran American singer-songwriters Kim Taylor and Todd Thibaud.

Their debut self-titled record was released in 2016 on Blue Rose Records. Catching Light will be their sophomore project on Blue Rose and was recorded in Cincinnati, Ohio in late August of 2019 at Old St. Luke's church near the Ohio river.

​

Todd Thibaud is a consistently convincing, reliable artist who always stays true to his musical vision. He does not change things up dramatically but finds variety in nuances of arrangement and production. After all, the consistently high quality of his songs and his mellifluous, warm voice create an irresistible and familiar atmosphere. This was already true of his first band, The Courage Brothers, in the early to mid-90s. With his 1997 solo debut Favorite Waste Of Time, the man from Vermont made his first mark on the songwriter/pop canopy. It was followed by a slew of classic Blue Rose studio albums Little Mystery (1999), Squash (2000), Northern Skies (2004), Broken (2008) Waterfall (2013) and Hill West (2019).

Cincinnati-based songwriter Kim Taylor has toured extensively with Canadian songwriter Ron Sexsmith and friends Over The Rhine and supported songwriting heroes like Kris Kristofferson. Her songs have been featured in numerous television shows including Flashpoint, Army Wives, Smallville, Cyberbully, One Tree Hill and most recently in the UK's flagship comedy-drama, Stella.

In 2013, she made her acting debut in the Sundance and Berlinale selected independent film, I Used To Be Darker, portraying a musician mother in the throes of divorce and on the brink of a new life.
