Taj Mahal Quintet

Concert Details

Grammy-winning multi-instrumentalist Taj Mahal is one of the most prominent figures in blues and roots music. A brilliant artist with a musicologist’s mind, he has pursued and elevated the roots of beloved sounds with boundless devotion and skill. As he has traced origins to the American South, the Caribbean, Africa, and elsewhere, he has created entirely new sounds, repeatedly. As a result, he is not only a hero to rock and roll icons such as Eric Clapton and the Rolling Stones, but also a hero to ambitious artists toiling in obscurity who are determined to combine sounds that have heretofore been ostracized from one another. No one is as simultaneously traditional and avant-garde.

In 2024, he released Swingin’ Live at the Church in Tulsa.
