  • Bio

    .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .. ..Zac Taylor has been making wise cracks for audiences in venues, subways, and parks around Boston, NYC, and Atlanta for the last few years. In recent months, he's kicked things up by adding horns, a swingin' rhythm section, and some filthy electric guitar, dubbing the band Zac Taylor & The Drugs. Think Ben Folds' playfulness with some gritty Telecaster. The debut record 'Salesman' is set to be released this spring. Produced by Berklee's own Ben Gebert, the vibe of the record has raw, tube-crunched guitar, rollicking drums, and some old school Wurlitzer to round out a jazzed-tinged, in-your-face pop-rock sound. _______________________________________________________________________ "Zac Taylor is a musical mascot bringing energy to any situation, especially when he's on stage. Quirky antics mixed with fun songwriting and a rockin' band make this a great show to see." ~WickedGoodScene.com ______________________________________________________________________ "The sound is well-rehearsed, upbeat, a little funky and has good flow. Lead guitarist Zac Taylor has the looks and the riffs for the job and plays his role in typical style." ~Flagpole Magazine, Athens GA _______________________________________________________________________ "The local rock scene has a love/hate relationship with Berklee and its guitar noodling prodigies-in-training, although arguably most of the time it's just plain hate. However, thanks to Cafe 939, a new hip venue recently opened by the college, there is finally a club that allows its students to shine and show the world that there's a whole lot more to Berklee than the guitar-wanking stereotypes. Tonight's show is a perfect example. Zac Taylor and his buddies, the Drugs, can play astonishingly well. Fortunately, their main focus is putting together some well-crafted songs rather than playing a series of unmemorable solos. This is not to say they aren't afraid to dish out some impressive licks, but there is a whole lot more to this band. There is clever stage banter and interaction with the audience; they even bring up a horn section for the last few songs. It's a great night!" ~Rock Around Boston _____________________________________________________________________.. A headlining slot on a Wednesday night is tough for most folk, but some of the hard core faithful are out to see Mr. Zac Taylor and his band, the Drugs. While the attendance is limited, the band makes the best of it, and fights the uphill battle of getting the party started. Zac Taylor & the Drugs hail from Berklee College of Music, and appropriately enough, play college rock music. They effortlessly flaunt their chops as they hammer out tune after tune, showcasing their own style of prog-rock pop. Zac, the band's frontman, fires off witty banter and off-color jokes, doing an excellent job of holding the crowd. The band's three-piece horn section caps the group off nicely, adding an additional element to the Ben-Folds-meets-John-Mayer sound. ~The Noise: Boston.._____________________________________ NEW WEBSITE COMING SOON.
