Tony Bennett is one of James’s personal musical heroes. Did you know that 50 years ago Tony recorded the song “The Best Is Yet to Come” the same year James recorded “Sweet Baby James”? Fast forward 50 years. They both inspire and that’s “why they are here” #TheBestIsYetToCome
Here’s a video from the time James and Tony recorded “Put On a Happy Face” for Tony’s Duets album (2006).

James announced today that he and Bonnie Raitt have rescheduled their 12-city Canadian tour to begin September 2021. Please visit the Schedule page for the complete list of new dates.
“I’m more than a little excited to announce the rescheduled performance dates for our James Taylor/Bonnie Raitt Canadian Tour. Starting in St. John’s Newfoundland in mid-September ’21, Bonnie and I will work our way West over the following month. It’s a kind of reunion for the two of us and we’re both really excited to share the stage again. Though I say it myself, our last tour together was as good as it gets. I love Bonnie and we both love Canada!”
~James Taylor
