Review of Sullivan Hall Performance
OnTap Magazine gives "Standing Alone" Four out of Four Beer Mugs!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Taylor Carson, revered songsmith and noted relationship philosopher, has finally gone back to his roots with his new record, Standing Alone. True to the title, these tracks feature Taylor singing alone with his acoustic guitar, painting memories in brilliant hues with his conversational vocals and melodic musicianship.

We asked Taylor Carson "Who are you?" and he responded with this: "What can I tell you about me? I am a singer and a songwriter and I write from the heart. My most recent release tells stories of fear and of happiness and my search for more of both."

With all this solo acoustic performing these days, people may be wondering "when do I get to dance?" Worry not your dancing heart -- Taylor Carson is still bringing the thump with his bandmates for shows in the Washington, DC and New York City areas. Yes, it is worth the trip from Philadelphia or Hartford or Cleveland -- just don't forget your dancing shoes.

Bandmates Patrick Thornton (Boogiehawg, Pat McGee Band) on bass and drummer Jamie Watkins (Ben's Bones) are acclaimed for contagious smiles and stunning good looks. When asked about his bandmates, Taylor said this, "Patrick is the backbone, making the bass sound like two instruments in one and singing like an angel (with day-old beard stubble), and Jamie's always making me dance -- did you know he has the 'quickest kick-drum in the east?' -- and his theatrics on 'Lucky Tonight' always crack me up."

Taylor has shared stages with Dispatch, Ed Robertson (Barenaked Ladies), Ellis Paul, Braddigan, Willy Porter, Reid Genauer, Jon McLaughlin and Stephen Kellogg & the Sixers. In response to his debut record, OnTap Magazine heralded, "Generation X had Dave Matthews, Generation Y has John Mayer and Generation Z will have Taylor Carson” and his fan community is en route to fulfilling the prophecy - are you a part of it?

Hey Taylor, it was so good to see you on Saturday night! The show was fantastic. I hope you liked Burlap & Bean enough to play there again. =) I'm hoping to be able to make the show in Phoenixville next month, fingers crossed. But until then, have a fun and safe tour!

Hey Taylor! I'm SO excited that you're playing a show at Burlap & Bean in September! I actually played open-mics there every week a couple summers ago. It's an awesome place. I will definitely be at your show. Can't wait to see you again!

Taylor!!! It's always a pleasure running into you around town. :) My calendar is marked for the Jammin Java show. Look forward to seeing you and the boys in concert again and to possibly hear you playin' a Gibson. Gibson's are beautiful guitars and sound very good, but there's just something about the tone of a Taylor that I love. If you start playin' a Gibson all the time, does this mean you'll be changin' your name to Gibson Carson? ;) See you soon.

Hi Taylor - thanks for finding me, sorry it took me so long to have a listen, but I love what I am hearing! I'm sorry I will be out of the country when you play in Hoboken, but hopefully you will come back and play close to or in NYC again so I can come hear you live! Hugs from the big apple!
