Firm Founder
Chris Taylor formed the law firm of Taylor Oballa Murray Leyland LLP in March 2006. He has been dubbed by Time Magazine as one of Canada’s “movers and shakers who are building the entertainment industry” and Billboard Magazine repeatedly cites him as one of the country’s most influential entertainment lawyers. Chris has developed a deep list of industry contacts around the world and he has extensive expertise in solicitation, re-negotiating contracts, and brokering agreements for clients.
In addition to the law firm, Chris started independent music company Last Gang, which helped to launch the careers of Metric, Death From Above 1979, and Crystal Castles, among many others. Last Gang has sold over 1,500,000 albums worldwide.
In 2016, Chris sold Last Gang to Entertainment One (eOne) and he took the position of Global President of eOne’s music division, where he oversees eOne’s recording, management, publishing, and live businesses.
