The Birmingham News “Powder Rooms with Pizazz,” July 2003: Listed as one of their five favorite bathrooms in Birmingham.

Birmingham Weekly “Menu of Menus” 2003: Rojo is red hot and their margarita business bustles after work as people gather to watch the sun set over Rushton Park. The patio, complete with ceiling fans and Christmas lights, provides a nice place to watch dog walkers wind along Highland Avenue. Inside, you’ll find a casual order-at-the-register system for both Latin and American cuisine. Regardless of where you sit, you can’t escape Paul Wilm’s painting of a gun-slinging, bandana-wearing amigo that rests against the wall of wine shelves. And a trip to the bathroom is like a trip around the world, what with the dozens of National Geographic magazine covers that paper the walls. Paella, chorizo tacos, chipotle pork and mushroom burritos, barbecue burritos and fried chicken soft tacos are just a few menu choices that keep the locals coming back.

Greetings-

I have been busy on tour with Conor Oberst and The Mystic Valley Band and haven't had a chance to tell you about my new record! It's called "Bad Little Kitty" and it came out back in July. There are a few tracks to sample on my MySpace but you can also check it out on iTunes or on my own website, www. TaylorHollingsworth. com. Thank you for continuing to be a friend and I hope you like the new collection of songs.
