Twenty years ago when Paul Taylor released his hit debut album, On the Horn, it wouldn’t have been hard to predict that here was a star in the making. Talent, like cream, has a way of rising to the top and Paul’s instantly identifiable sax tones, infectious melodies, cutting edge production and dynamic live performances foretold an impressive career that have catapulted him to the top of the smooth jazz charts again and again.

Paul’s signature sound remains ever cool and deeply soulful with a rhythmic, trip-hop sound influenced by working with some of urban jazz and R&B’s top producers, including Rex Rideout, Barry J. Eastmond and The Heavyweights. With the release of his 10th CD, the aptly titled Tenacity, he remains a fresh and vital force in contemporary urban jazz, with this CD hitting the top ten on the charts in 2014.

Long a mainstay among the most popular and elite artists, Paul Taylor has been on an exhilarating upswing over the past 8 years with three chart-topping #1 hits. His live performances have been equally electrifying, thrilling longtime urban jazz aficionados and attracting new fans at two of Jazz’s greatest summer venues.

Today, Paul’s solo and collaborative gigs are as varied as his melodic and soulful tunes. His venues range from small clubs and private in-home parties to huge urban Jazz festivals where his brand of smooth Jazz continues to exhilarate appreciative audiences. Taylor’s mix of funk and sensuality have become a mainstay of smooth Jazz as he continues to redefine a genre he clearly owns.
