Rocktopia: Fireworks Magazine 41 - Interview with Taz Taylor Band

The Taz Taylor Band is due to release their 3rd album in July, entitled ‘Big Dumb Rock’. Under the moniker of The Taz Taylor Band, it is a return to Taz Taylor’s instrumental roots. The band was formed following his solo album Caffeine Racer in 2005. The next year saw the release of Welcome To America with Graham Bonnet on vocals. Two years later following two international tours including a very abrupt parting of the ways with Graham Bonnet, a second line up was formed. Keith Slack (ex MSG) became the new singer with Val Trainor retaining drum duties and Dirke Krause on bass. With Keith Slack still in the band, they are perhaps surprisingly about to release an instrumental album Big Dumb Rock. Rob McKenzie caught up with Taz Taylor himself on a transatlantic call to find out more. http://ping.fm/sJevJ
