James Taylor will tour with what he has called his “All-Star Band” this summer in support of his album Before This World.
The new album is Taylor’s first with original material since 2002’s October Road. Since then, he has released a covers album, two holiday albums and a solo live set, and Live at the Troubadour with Carole King.
While there is no official confirmation yet on whether all the members of Taylor’s band will be touring with him this year, the current published lineup includes Andrea Zonn (vocals and fiddle), Arnold McCuller (vocals), David Lasley (vocals), Jimmy Johnson (bass), Kate Markowitz (vocals), Larry Goldings (keyboard), Lou Marini (horns), Luis Conte (percussion), Michael Landau (guitar), Walt Fowler (horns, keyboard) and Steve Gadd (drums).
