Daisy Taylor (1894-1930)

Overview

It is surprising that so little is known about this performer considering the large number of compositions located. All that can presently (August 2021) be gleaned about Daisy Taylor from sheet music covers and by Internet searching is that she has been featured on 35 works and recordings published between 1910 and 1924.
She was Scottish music hall singer and dancer who had a relatively short but very successful career appearing in the United Kingdom, South Africa and the United States.
Surfers are welcome to contribute any further information about this performer.
