Russ Taff with special guest Steve Taylor and Some Band

Synopsis

Russ Taff with special guest Steve Taylor and Some Band – two longtime Titans of Christian Music – have joined forces on a tour featuring songs from throughout their epic careers. Taff’s latest album, “Cover Story,” is a raw and emotionally revelatory piece of work produced by Taylor, whose past credits include producing the Grammy-winning group Sixpence None The Richer (“Kiss Me.”) But it’s as a performer where Steve first shot into the musical landscape with his biting social satire through albums like “I Want To Be A Clone,” “Meltdown” and “I Predict 1990.” Taff, a seminal member of the gospel supergroup The Imperials for several years, won multiple Grammy Awards with his solo work in the 80s and 90s and is best known for his powerful anthem, “We Will Stand.”  Taylor later fronted the band Chagall Guevara, and it was at a reunion concert with this band that Steve ran into Russ and began to plant the seeds for the “Cover Story” project. In it, Taff covers songs by a wide range of artists, from Paul Simon to The National to Duran Duran – with Taylor adding his unique production touch. Think of Rick Rubin’s first work with Johnny Cash. This show promises to reveal several layers of each artist’s musical and spiritual paths.

Doors at 6:30; show at 7:30 p.m.
