Planning a party or event and looking for entertainment? I’m a talented, charismatic, and approachable singing guitarist, one man band, and DJ whose uplifting, personable performances and customer service create uniquely engaging parties, memorable corporate events, and special, intimate weddings.
I perform for your guests because I love to see and feel the energy that grows when a group of people let loose for a night! We carry so much weight on our shoulders every day, and I am very thankful that my music helps to lift it for an evening. We all need to take moments to breathe and refresh ourselves, and I am honored to be a part of that.
Let’s take stress off your plate and book your event!

February 17, 2025He put on a terrific show. He pleased experienced dancers, people who love jazz and people who usually only want country western. He got people up dancing with a wide range of songs from the 50's on. We had him for an afternoon which was perfect for our Senior community. Lots of people came just to hear the music and not dance and others dance nearly the whole time. He paced the songs. We hired him for two hours and he offered to play the guitar as back ground for a half and hour while serving refreshments before the dancing. I got many compliments. Some said it was the best party in a long time. I am sure we will have him again.

November 4, 2021Taylor...I cannot begin to express the outstanding night you and your Brother gave us! This was an extremely important event and the music could not have been any better !! Every guest, all 125 plus of them, had the time of their life. We danced, laughed, we got to communicate with Taylor throughout the night. He commented on the birthday girl several times and took special requests rom the crowd to honor each of the families!! I can't wait for another event so we can have the honor of having the excitement all over again with Taylor John Graves!!! Thank you from Susan and my entire family

Engaging audiences with well known, dynamic Hits Across The Decades, cover song specialist Taylor John Graves is “…the perfect fit…” with “…great music and a variety of fun songs.” -Meg S
On stage entertaining crowds professionally since the age of 11, Taylor has been getting audiences on their feet and dancing for nearly three decades. Training and gigging with family roots gave him the cross-generational knowledge to build a large catalog of Top 40 hits from the Golden 50s to the modern hits of today.
“He is able to play to any age group, and can keep the volume at a comfortable level for a garden party or crank it up for the wild side.” -Jim C
Taylor’s professionalism and drive stem not only from his family background, but from a determination to blow past the stigma of mental illness. Diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder in 2002, he has shown that music has the power to heal, create bonds, and make a positive impact on those who hear and enjoy it.
An “awesome musician and entertainer. The consummate professional in every way,” (-Kim G) when Taylor steps onto a stage, the audience can feel the impact behind every word, and the power of music to elevate and empower people is at the core of every performance.
Taylor is currently expanding his private, venue, and corporate services across the Southwestern United States.
“We can’t say enough great things about his performance…if you’re considering booking him for your next event, take my advice and go for it!” -Kayla L
I will supply the full sound equipment setup and provide access to a microphone with the base setup and rate. For add-on options including lighting, fog machines, additional sound units for attached rooms, or professional Emcee services such as coordinating wedding events, please reach out with your event details or request a quote. Thanks!

I require one three pronged, or grounded outlet within 30 ft of the stage, and complete protection for me and my gear from any moisture or inclement weather. Thank you!
