JT TAYLOR
How To Book JT TAYLOR For Your Event!
James JT Taylor
may be available for your next special event!
When JT Taylor joined
Kool
& the Gang, it was a step up from his former job as an amateur
nightclub singer from New Jersey. Taylor was also no stranger to
Kool
& the Gang's music.
Hire JT Taylor for your festival or concert plans.
Together, they released the album "Ladies'
Night." Taylor's creamy voice gave the album popularity, the
singles "Too Hot" and "Ladies' Night" reaching
gold and platinum status. The group's change to a pop sound was raised
by producer Eumir Deodato, who, starting with Ladies'
Night, produced
the group's next four platinum and gold albums, between 1979 and 1982.
With the help of Deodato, the group's next album,
"Celebrate," became one of the biggest hits of their career.
Kool
& the Gang
separated amicably from their producer in 1983 and decided to create
their own recordings in-house. The 1983 album, "In the Heart",
was produced by Khalis Bayyan (Ronald Bell),
Kool
& the Gang
and engineer Jim Bonnefond, but in all following albums, Khalis Bayyan
became the group's secret production weapon. From the mid-1980s until
the early 1990s, Khalis Bayyan kept the sound established. The biggest change of the 1980s, however, came with
the departure of lead singer, JT Taylor. The vocalist, who left in
1988, reportedly departed amicably with plans to make a solo album.
The gang replaced Taylor with singers/instrumentalists Sonnie
"Skip" Martin and Odeen Mays, Jr. They released two studio
albums, "Sweat" (1989) and "Unite"
(1998).
Taylor
released three solo albums, produced by Khalis Bayyan and JT Taylor
himself. There was big news in the summer of 1995, Taylor returned to
the band and they released a new album, "State
of Affairs."
Hire JT Taylor for your very special event or
occasion. The reunion tour with Kool and the Gang
started in 1995 and ended inMarch 1999. Since that time, JT has never stopped performing. He put
together his own band and has been touring throughout the United
States and around the World.
In July 2023, JT Taylor performed at the Newport Folk Festival
along with others, including
Billy Strings,
Lana Del Rey,
Aimee Mann,
Los Lobos,
Jason Isbell,
John Oates,
Jon Batiste,
Maggie Rogers and
My Morning
Jacket.
JT Taylor now performs all the hit songs he sang
with Kool
& the Gang including:
- Celebration
- Get Down on It
- Ladies Night
- Fresh
- Joanna
- Cherish
- Too Hot
- All I Want Is Forever

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO BOOK/HIRE JT TAYLOR?
(i.e., what is the booking fee to hire JT TAYLOR for an event?)
(i.e., what is JT TAYLOR booking fee to perform at an event?)
Official booking fees for JT TAYLOR, or any other celebrity, are
determined based on a number of factors and may change at anytime without prior
notice.
Factors influencing pricing vary and may include date, location, type of
event, whether a private party or a public concert, the artist's calendar,
whether the artist is on tour or not, how well tickets are selling at the
artist's concerts, the current demand for the artist's music, market activity, etc.
As you might expect, the more in-demand the artist is, the more buyers are
prepared to pay. Of course, this causes the artist's price to increase as
the artist becomes more popular or decrease when becoming less popular.
Exclusive agents with exclusive representation frequently quote a
range instead of a specific price, since changes can occur at anytime.
Generally, the
artist's manager has a role in the decision to accept any
particular offer from a talent buyer.

artist's fee for your particular event, simply click on the "Let's Get Started!" link found on this page. Then, send us your request for booking
