Born in
Boston and raised in North Carolina, Livingston Taylor grew up in a very
musical family with fellow musicians as siblings. His nephew, acoustic
guitarist Ben Taylor, performed at The Barns at Wolf Trap in October 2012.
Imparting the knowledge he’s learned in his 40 years of touring, Taylor is a full professor at Berklee College of Music, where he teaches a class on stage performance. He also wrote the book Stage Performance, which offers advice about life on the road and having a conversation with the audience.
He has released more than a dozen albums, and his most recent effort, Last Alaska Moon (2010) contains melodies that are “carefully crafted and artistically wrought.”—AllMusic.com
Taylor, who has performed with legends including Linda Ronstadt and Jethro Tull, still performs nearly 80 shows a year.
“Livingston Taylor is a master of the performing word. After all, he has made his living as a singer-songwriter for about 40 years. He can also weave a complex, compelling tapestry with the spoken word.”—MetroWest Daily News
A compelling singer/songwriter from Alaska, Chelsea Berry has performed her powerful folk-rock music all across the United States, from Nashville to Carnegie Hall, and is currently working on her first album with a full band.
