‘Sweet Baby’ James Taylor Coming to New Hampshire and Massachusetts This Summer

I love this time of year!  The concert season in New England is heating up!

There is not a corner of my memory that I haven't known the name James Taylor.  He is one of a few musicians that seem to be already in my head since the day I was born and I am so grateful for that.

James Taylor's "JT" album was the very first one I ever bought with my own money.  I remember having the $5 in my hand and I rode my bike to Bradlee's Department Store to check out the record collection, which was what I did in my free time, but this time, I had the cash in hand and not my Mom or Dad.

It was between JT and the soundtrack to "Pete's Dragon" (because I loved Helen Reddy's voice too) but Sweet Baby James won.  I had been a fan for as long as I can remember and truth be told, the choice seemed a bit "cooler" to me, even back then.

James Taylor was born in Boston and he still calls Massachusetts his home.

James Taylor is Giving Away Free Guitar Lessons

If you've ever wanted to take guitar lessons from someone who has toured the world and has been playing the instrument for decades, James has free lessons on his website.  All you have to do is put in your email and Voila! You too could be a pro on the six string.

James has several upcoming tour dates for NH and Massachusetts.

• Saturday, June 20, 2026, he'll be at BankNH Pavilion in Gilford, NH.  Follow this link for ticket info.

• Friday and Saturday, July 3 & 4, 2026, he'll be at Tanglewood in Lenox, Massachusetts.  Follow this link for ticket info.

• Saturday and Sunday, September 5 & 6, 2026 at MGM Music Hall at Fenway in Boston, Massachusetts.  Follow this link for ticket info.

James is just wonderful to see in concert.  His band is off the hook and he will play songs that you know and maybe some you weren't familiar with.  If you do end up going, I'll see you there.
