Taj Mahal - Ask anyone who knows him and they'll tell you; Taj Mahal is a family man. Of course, we're talking about the family of great African-American musical traditions. Blues, folk, reggae, R&B, zydeco, gospel and jazz - all of which defined the very character of music in this country. His music remains a well-seasoned gumbo, spiced with influences that originate in the Caribbean, West Africa, the southern states and the inner cities of America. Throughout his 35 year career, Taj a true renaissance man, is a cyclone of energy and sound. A self-taught musician, Taj plays over 20 instruments including the National Steel and Dobro guitars and his remarkable voice ranges from gruff and gravelly to smooth and sultry. Taj has remained one of our premiere troubadours, revealing in every performance the soul of American roots music. Do not miss Taj tonight in his musically intense trio format.
