Intimate Evening With Terry Scott Taylor
You are cordially invited to spend a rare and intimate evening of story and song with Terry Scott Taylor.
Terry Scott Taylor is a man who wears many hats. Singer. Cowboy hat. Songwriter. Baseball cap. Father. Fedora. Producer. Prophet. Prankster. Pioneer. As the founder of legendary CCM band Daniel Amos he helped pioneer a new artistically-minded aesthetic in a musically stunted genre. As the merry prankster behind the Swirling Eddies he became a supreme satirist while continuously shedding musical skins. As chief songwriter for the Lost Dogs he brought modern maturity to the old forms and helped make them relevant to new generations. As a composer for video games and cartoons he brought his quirky genius to bear in a field that had been
rendered dull and void by electronic keyboards. As a solo artist he laid bare his personal life—its triumphs and tragedies—and made his story our story as well. Some of his songs are limericks. Some are literature. He's flown under most of the radar for more than 30 years but those in the know rank him among our greatest living treasures.
Out of a deep humility he usually works within the context of a band of musicians in order to take a little of the heat off himself. Not this night. This night, joined occasionally on stage by special guest Steve Hindalong and Terry's son Andrew, and armed only with a guitar and his incredible collection of hats, audiences will discover the real Terry Taylor. Intimacy is the name of the game and everyone is invited to play along. Songs. Stories. Answers. You’ll hear them all like never before. Come witness the mind of a visionary, the heart of an artist and the soul of a fellow pilgrim.
Joining Terry on stage for a select number of songs chosen from his extensive repertoire of Daniel Amos, Swirling Eddies, Lost Dogs, and solo recordings, will be special guest Steve Hindalong ( Lost Dogs' member, founding member of The Choir, creator and producer of the 'City on a Hill’ series, and co-writer of 'God of Wonders'). The ever illusive Camarillo Eddy, founder of 'The Swirling Eddies, is rumored to appear as well. We are
also thrilled to announce that for the very first time ever, Terry's son Andrew will also join his father on stage.
Terry will not only entertain you with humorous and moving anecdotes and songs, he will offer readings from his forthcoming book of collected non-fiction, lyric recitations and commentary, and perform a variety of familiar songs as well as those rarely, if ever, performed in a live setting. At selected venues the evening will be capped off with an audience participation Q&A.
An Intimate evening with Terry Scott Taylor promises to be a surprising, 'don't miss' one-of-a-kind event.
A note from Terry: "As far as live performances go, I don't believe I've done anything quite like this before. I think the audience, which is really more a gathering of close friends and family, is in for some real surprises including a few firsts. Now, the mysterious Camarillo Eddy says he'll show up, but you never know about that guy. On the other hand, I know the great Steve Hindalong will be there to join me on a number of tunes. I've got to say however that my greatest thrill concerning this tour is that my son Andrew will, for the very first time in my 30 plus years of performing, be joining me on stage. I'm extremely proud of him and can't wait for folks to meet him. The song selection should be surprising as well. It's eclectic, unpredictable and culled from every musical entity I've ever been involved with down through the years. At many of the shows I'm planning to field questions from the audience and, if I know my crowd at all, this should prove quite interesting. I may even get Steve to do his leprechaun dance and also that thing where he flips a coin into the air and catches it behind his back. Now that's a show!
"We all essentially agree that we're living in fairly dark and unpredictable times. I'm prayerfully determined to lighten the audience’s load a bit and do so through laughter, some challenges, and more importantly some heart-felt inspiration. (Oh, by the way, I've got some road stories to tell which, in some instances, are truly weird and astounding.)
"Anyway, in the words of Sam the Sham ‘Let's not be L7!’ Come on out to the show and let's all have a wonderful time together." - Terry Taylor

I believe the schedule is still taking shape and nothing is definite yet. Once there are firm dates scheduled, they'll be posted.

So does this replace the "TST & Friends Tour", or is it in addition to?

Its the same tour. They were having a lot of problems with conflicting schedules which were making it difficult to put a full band together. So, they're going to go with a smaller set up. That also opens up a lot of potential venues that may not have been able to handle the larger band.

So if he is performing songs from every musical entity does that me we get some rapture tunes? That could make a concert a historical event and fill a stadium with die hard crap fans!

I know there are some other Texans on this board. Are any of you close to the Austin area and willing to help put on a show here?

I'm close enough to Austin that I would make the trip to see it. I'm trying to get a venue here to book the show, but they don't know who he is and are afraid that they wouldn't make any money.
Whaddaya do?

I just need to find someone to underwrite the costs with the hope that the majority would come back. Maybe a bunch of people in PA could go in together to promote the show. I live in Bernville, which is 8 miles northwest of Reading, PA. If anyone would be interested in helping to host a concert here I would be willing to help make it happen. |
Check your PM's!!

I can't give any titles away, but the list of songs that are being considered/rehearsed is a pretty fun and impressive collection of songs... a lot of variety and surprises.
Don't miss it!
