Taylor is a multi-award winning guitarist and Acoustic
Guitar magazine calls him "THE Acoustic
Guitarist of his Generation." He dazzles audiences
with his solo shows, which combine virtuosity,
emotion, humor, and a strong stage presence while
his inimitable style has seen him recognized as the
world’s foremost exponent of solo finger-style guitar
playing.
Taylor has invented and developed a way of playing the guitar
that is admired, and often imitated, by guitarists
all over the world.
Collaborations with artists including Jeff Beck, Tommy
Emmanuel, Bill Wyman, Chet Atkins, David Grisman,
Dianne Schuur and Gary Burton have seen him garner
two honorary doctorates, a BBC lifetime achievement
award, top-10 albums in both the USA and Europe, and
a record 14 British Jazz Awards.
In 2002, he was appointed MBE ‘For Services to Jazz Music’ by
Her Majesty the Queen of Great Britain. His ‘Spirit
of Django Orchestral Suite’ recently received its
London Premiere at the Royal Albert Hall.
As one of the world’s most recognized online guitar teachers,
his innovative online guitar school is subscribed to
by guitarists in over 58 countries.
