"To say that Eric Taylor is one of the finest writers of our time, would be an understatement. If you miss an opportunity to hear Eric Taylor, you have missed a chance to hear a voice I consider the William Faulkner of songwriting in our current time." -Nanci Griffith

Eric Taylor is a sage musician, a lyrical genius and a master of the guitar. If you're familiar with the intricate Texas singer/songwriter jigsaw puzzle, you probably already know a lot about Taylor. If you're not familiar with Taylor by name, you've probably heard his songs performed by people such as Nanci Griffith and Lyle Lovett. He has created a multitude of fans and devotees that are legends themselves in the singer/songwriter realm, artists who have long considered Taylor to be a teacher and a lantern bearer whose time is long overdue.

Griffith has recorded several of Taylor's songs, including "Deadwood," "Storms," "Dollar Matinee," and "Ghost in the Music," which they wrote together. Lovett, who recorded Taylor's "Memphis Midnight/Memphis Morning" and "Whooping Crane," and with whom Taylor co-wrote the immensely popular "Fat Babies," compares his narrative voice to that of Bruce Springsteen. And Iain Matthews claims: "Once you become a Taylor fanatic, it gives one immense joy and pride to be able to enlighten others to the man's work."

This special show in an intimate listening/dining setting is part of the Puget's Sound 'Room For Roots' Americana Music Series, co-presented with KBCS 91.3-FM Community Radio.
