James Taylor Announces Fall Dates, Extending Tour With Special Guest Jackson Browne

The esteemed folk rock singer/songwriters have both released new albums in the past year and a half. 

Taylor released American Standards in February 2020, marking his 20th studio album. The LP includes his take on classics such as “Moon River,” “Almost Like Being in Love,” “God Bless The Child” and “The Surrey with the Fringe On Top.” The collection was awarded a Grammy in the category of Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album. 

Browne released his 15th studio album, Downhill from Everywhere, in July. The LP is his first album of new material in seven years.
