Why see James Taylor?
Sweet Baby, It's James!
A true legend associated with Californian folk-rock, James Taylor is one of the most personal and intimate songwriters, who continues to make fresh, new artistic triumphs a mere forty years after his breakthrough album.
In a career that started off with a bang in 1960's NYC, by way of Swingin' London and a cool collaboration with the Beatles, it was 1970 that brought Sweet Baby James (and his eponymous record) to public notice, displaying an epic and haunting maturity that seemed far beyond his 22 years and leading to his becoming part of a peerless group that defined that era, including Carole King, Joni Mitchell, Jackson Browne and many more. More recently he has inspired and worked with country mega-star Taylor Swift.
Expect such hits from the five-time Grammy Award Winner as 'Fire and Rain', 'Country Road', 'Something In The Way She Moves', 'Mexico', 'Shower The People', 'Your Smiling Face', 'Carolina In My Mind', 'Sweet Baby James', in an always incredible performance.

James Taylor is an icon in pop music
We came from NC to Boston in part to see JT. He and his band (including his wife and son) were engaging, magical, humorous with his commentary in between songs, and ALL music was simply fabulous. Truly! At his ascending age, his stage presence and voice are both captivating - as they always have been. He actually seems to be happier now as a performer than in his younger years. He meandered through classic masterpieces and added a few songs that we had never heard before (one about his childhood pig/pet, Mona, and one about the Red Sox). The crowd was just enthralled, on their feet singing, clapping and adoring. He did 5 encore numbers (in 3 encores), concluding with an emotion-evoking duet with his son. This concert was worth EVERY penny, and we left just humming along, his music forever a part of us. Thank you JT! ... Read more
