Bio

For Taylor Scott, nothing is black and white. He operates in the grey areas between genres, creating his own colorful hybrid of musical styles. Taylor Scott Band is a Denver-based force delivering a dynamic blend of funk, blues, soul, and greasy rock & roll that they’ve dubbed "Mountain Funk." Their groove-driven sound is fueled by commanding vocals, funky bass lines, and fiery guitar and keyboard improvisations layered over heavy drum grooves and world music-inspired percussion. Taylor Scott has toured all over the U.S., Canada and Europe with trance-blues legend Otis Taylor, recorded with the likes of Warren Haynes and Henry Garza (Los Lonely Boys), performed on stage with artists like Los Lobos, Leftover Salmon, Sam Bush, & Andy Frasco as well as opened for acts like Steve Miller Band, Buddy Guy, Kenny Wayne Shepard, Dave Alvin & Jimmie Dale Gilmore. The band’s latest EP “Sorry, Kids” showcases their evolving sound following their previous album, “The Hang,” produced by Grammy-winning Steve Berlin (Los Lobos). More than just a performance, their high-energy live shows ignite the dance floor and bring people together, fostering a sense of community and joy.

What People are saying

Los Lobos

"Taylor Scott is one of the most talented singer/songwriter/guitar monsters I have had the pleasure of working with. His ability to distill complex human feelings into concise 4-minute epics is truly extraordinary, and then to rip a face-melting solo on top of it all? Just remarkable to say the least.” - Steve Berlin (Los Lobos)

Westword

"Hidalgo (Los Lobos) and company also know how to send the elevator back to the bottom. This time, it was to bring the brilliant Denver guitarist Taylor Scott on stage, with his Les Paul and Willie Nelson braids, to slay on Duane Allman-esque lead guitar throughout the show’s last batch of rollicking tunes." – Westword Denver

Dave Alvin

"Taylor Scott is one of those artists that can do it all. A heartfelt, sincere songwriter with extraordinary guitar chops and a deeply soulful voice.” - Dave Alvin

Lettuce

"Taylor Scott is the epitome of an old soul. He seems to know a little bit about everything, has his OWN sound as a vocalist AND a guitar player, and is full of good ideas and advice. I always look forward to making music with Taylor and this record is BAAD to the BONE." - Eric Benny Bloom (Lettuce)

Glide Magazine

“Fresh off their electrifying performance at the July 2022 Briggs Farm Blues Festival which this writer described this way on these pages – ‘The Taylor Scott Band from Colorado laid down some of the funkiest music ever heard on the farm, buoyed by Scott’s soulful vocals, fiery guitar playing, top-notch B3 work from Jon Wirtz, and filthy, greasy bass lines from bassist Jiho Han wielding a 5-string,’ we now have a new release, The Hang.” - Glide Magazine

Elmore Magazine

“With their combination of soul, funk, blues, and rock ‘n’ roll, Taylor Scott’s music is gaining a reputation for transcending the limitations of a single genre.” - Elmore Magazine
