Singer, instrumentalist, composer, producer and two-time Grammy-winner Taj Mahal was the only American artist featured in The Rolling Stones' Rock & Roll Circus, a remarkable event that showcased the foremost artists in the music community, including John Lennon, Jethro Tull, The Who and Marianne Faithfull. He has appeared on countless collaborations, soundtracks and in several films.
After more than a decade of playing with larger ensembles, Taj decided he wanted to do more guitar playing with a smaller group. Now with his trio, he plays guitar, piano and banjo, with Bill Rich playing bass and Kester Smith on the drums. The Taj Mahal Trio has been playing together for more than 30 years. Together, they blend sounds of folk, jazz, zydeco, gospel, rock, pop, blues and soul to form their own sound, which is unlike any other.
Join us in welcoming the Taj Mahal trio for what is sure to be an amazing show!
