Otis Taylor is one of the few musicians in the world who bring depth and honesty to the topics of his songs and the passion of his voice and playing. He grew up in Denver, CO, but was born in Chicago in 1948. He is a multi-instrumentalist whose talents include the guitar, banjo, mandolin, harmonica and vocals. He was inducted into the Colorado Music Hall of Fame in 2019.
Otis has released over a dozen albums to date. His latest is Banjo... is Otis at his best! Banjo… was recorded in Boulder over a two-week period with Otis Taylor’s band. On drums, the amazing Chuck Louden brings his rhythmic fire along with Nick Amodeo on bass and mandolin, J.P. Johnson on lead guitar and on the B3 Hammond and Moog synth, the wild man himself, Brian Juan.
