    In Spring 2017, James invited fans to submit their personal videos singing the chorus to “Shower The People”. Thousands of videos were received and hundreds were projected onto the giant video wall on stage as James and the band as they performed “Shower The People” on the 2017 US tour. The video wall will be used onstage again on tour in 2018.

  • MLK 50

    Apr 4, 2018


    Of the people with whom I have shared my time on this planet, I believe King is the most heroic, the most like Christ or the Buddha. Churchill, FDR, Kennedy, Ghandi, Mother Teresa, for me, King eclipses them all. Not that anyone’s asking or there’s a competition or anything but 50 years ago the brightest light in a generation was snuffed out. The great cause of love and compassion, of peace and reconciliation that he led has had many heroic martyrs. Clearly he knew he was at risk and still he carried on.

    He was human and he had human weaknesses and misgivings but when he was called upon, he stood up and shouldered the load. A truly great man, he was equal to the great challenge of our time, the deeply rooted racial injustice that plagues our nation and threatens the noble American experiment. He showed us the way.

    …Let us turn our thoughts today to Martin Luther King
    And recognize that there are ties between us,
    All men and women, living on the earth
    Ties of hope and love, of sister and brotherhood
    That we are bound together
    in our desire to see the world become
    A place in which our children can grow free and strong
    We are bound together by the task that stands before us
    and the road that lies ahead
    We are bound and we are bound…

    James Taylor
