  FIRE & RAIN:
CELEBRATING THE MUSIC OF
JAMES TAYLOR

Fire & Rain is a musical tribute James Taylor fans will treasure.

   

Bay Area guitarist Craig Relyea was in high school when he first heard the album "Sweet Baby James." That launched Craig's lifelong appreciation for JT's intricate fingerpicking style, which led to years of studying and performing his unique "one man band" guitar arrangements.

   

Now, you can enjoy live performances of James Taylor's most beloved songs including "Country Road," "You've Got A Friend," "Shower The People," "Sweet Baby James," "You Can Close Your Eyes," "Up On The Roof," "Something In The Way She Moves," "Carolina In My Mind," "Mexico," "Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight," "The Water Is Wide," "Secret o' Life" and of course "Fire and Rain" in the acoustic, one-man-band style JT is known for. 

   

Join us as we pay tribute to one of the world's legendary singer-songwriters -- Fire & Rain: Celebrating the Music of James Taylor will fill your heart and soul with joy.

 

Can't wait to see you at the next show -- be prepared to sing along!

SHOWS

We had a wonderful time performing our debut show in front of a sold-out crowd at Lamorinda Music's "Big Room" in Lafayette, CA.  

What an enthusiastic audience! We loved how everyone joined in for several rousing a cappella choruses of Shower The People, lifting everyone's spirits and sending us all home with a smile.

Our initial show also helped raise funds for CoachArt, providing free music and art lessons for kids impacted by chronic illness. Subscribe today to receive updates on future shows.
