The Taylorized Show Band at the Blue Room
About this Event
Soul runs in the blood. TJ Hooker-Taylor leads The Taylorized Show Band, and he comes by it honestly — he's the son of soul-blues giant Johnnie Taylor, the voice behind "Who's Making Love," "Disco Lady," and "Cheaper to Keep Her." Saturday night he brings that second-generation soul home to the Blue Room.
A Kansas City singer raised in the church, Hooker-Taylor came up leading the Young Golden Voices and went on to found the funk outfit the Grand Jury Band, sharing stages with the Bar-Kays, Cameo, and Slave. He spent roughly a decade opening for his father before Taylor's passing in 2000, and he's spent the years since carrying that catalog forward alongside his own Southern soul originals across records like "Taylorized."
Saturday he headlines two sets of soul, blues, and R&B the way it's meant to be heard — live, warm, and full of grit.
Two sets, 8:30 and 10 pm. $10 for one show, $15 for both.
The Blue Room, 1600 E 18th St, Kansas City, MO 64108. Saturday, June 27 — 8:30 pm & 10 pm.
