"It's really about what it means to the audience": James Taylor on touring, family, and his extensive career

One of the bestselling musicians of all time, Grammy Award Winner and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer James Taylor is on his way to New Zealand. 

He’s sold over 100 million albums in a career spanning more than 50 years and is the only artist to have an album in the Billboard Top 10 in each of the past six decades. 

The end of April will see Taylor visiting Auckland and Wellington for ‘An Evening with James Taylor,' two stops on his packed tour schedule spanning the better part of the year. 

He’s been touring for decades, telling Mike Hosking that it’s funny to look back at some of his earlier songs complaining about the uncomfortable fit of working in show business. 

Taylor said it’s funny to realise that, in spite of his complaints, it’s sustained him for over 50 years now. 

'An Evening With James Taylor' is coming to Auckland's Spark Arena on April 30th, and Wellington's TSB Arena on May 1st.
