TAZ TAYLOR BAND Announces New Singer

January 9, 2009

The TAZ TAYLOR BAND, whose touring lineup previously included legendary hard rock vocalist Graham Bonnet (RAINBOW, MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP, ALCATRAZZ, IMPELLITTERI),has announced the addition of singer Keith Slack (pictured below) to the group's ranks. According to the band, "Keith will probably be most notably known to TTB fans for his work with MSG on the '99 Unforgiven world tour and the subsequent double live album release, as well as his work with MUDPIE, STEELHOUSE LANE and others. Keith is a real find for the band."

Says Taz Taylor, "We knew that finding someone to step into the lead vocal spot left vacant by Graham Bonnet was not going to be an easy task.... and then Keith came in like a TRAIN!!"

TAZ TAYLOR BAND entered a San Diego studio late last year to began work on the follow-up album to "Welcome To America". DEEP PURPLE keyboard player Don Airey makes an appearance on the LP, which will contain "11 tracks of hard rock, combining elements of the past, but with a contemporary vibe also," according to a posting on the band's web site.

TAZ TAYLOR BAND last year released a concert DVD entitled "Live in Prague - Ultimate Bootleg" via its official web site. This complete unedited performance shows the band in top form performing 19 songs, including tracks from its CD release "Welcome To America" featuring Graham Bonnet on lead vocals. Also featured are several hits from Graham Bonnet's career with RAINBOW and MSG as well as tracks from Taz Taylor's solo instrumental CD "Caffeine Racer".
