James Taylor Takes Intimate ‘One Man Band’ on Road This Spring

Songwriter/singer James Taylor will be hitting the road in March to make a series of stripped down performances.

Taylor during the outing will be performing on guitar and have only one musician, Larry Goldings on keyboards, backing him. Currently the tour is scheduled to perform in eight Southern city performing arts halls.

On February 6, Taylor was honored as MusicCares Person of the Year in Los Angeles. He was recognized for all the various charity work he is involved in. Some of the artists performing at Taylor’s tribute included Taj Mahal, Alison Krauss, India Arie, Dr. John, David Crosby, Jackson Browne, Sting, Sheryl Crow, Carole King, Bonnie Raitt, Paul Simon, Dixie Chicks and Bruce Springsteen.

The most recent album of Taylor’s featuring material that is all new is “October Road” from 2002. Last year “James Taylor: A Christmas Album” that was sold at Hallmark stores exclusively, followed.
