Sweet Baby James: The #1 James Taylor Tribute 2026

Don’t miss America’s #1 James Taylor tribute, as Nashville singer-songwriter Bill Griese brings his acclaimed Sweet Baby James show back to Crossville's Palace Theatre! Not your typical tribute band fare, Griese delights audiences using only his uncanny Taylor-like vocals & guitar playing and a uniquely down-to-earth personality. Bill offers no impersonations or gimmicks; just the great music of JT.
Audiences rave: “The next best thing to James,” “his voice is spot on,” “close my eyes and it’s JT,” “I don’t like tributes but I LOVED this show,” “James would be proud,” “amazing guitar playing,” “everything he does honors JT.” Come hear favorites like Fire and Rain, You’ve Got a Friend, Shower the People, How Sweet It Is, and Steamroller, as well as hidden gems and much more.
Bill Griese lives in Nashville, TN. He is singer-songwriter in his own right, with 3 full-length albums and multiple singles on Spotify, Apple, Amazon, and other music platforms.
