Wednesday. Juiy 14
Maria Taylor and
Andy LeMaster, Hope
for Agoldensummer,
Nate Nelson
Caledonia Lounge
In the decade since she left
Athens (first for Omaha, then
Los Angeles), Maria Taylor has
wowed the world with Azure
Ray, released several stellar
solo albums and contributed to several mote, including Now It's Overhead; Crooked Fingers
.and Bright Eyes. Fortunately, Taylor's Latest flight of fancy has brought her dulcet tones
and multi-instrumental mastery back to our region; she recently purchased a house in her
hometown, Birmingham, AL, to be dose to her family.
*1 love being back in the South!" Taylor says. "One of the perks is being able to drive
back to Athens. Fm there, like, every other week.'
Including this one, when Taylor teams up with collaborator Andy LeMaster, providing
a preview of their latest collaboration, Maria Taylor and Andy LeMaster (MTAL).
"We planned to play songs from MTAL but realized that all our new songs [written
together] really need a band because there are so many parts that We fed like are inte
gral to the songs.* Instead, 'we're gonna pretty much just play lots of my songs, but then
making them our own version, stripped down. Andy is adding all these-cool guitar pprts
arid he's singing harmonies. We're also gonna play a couple of NIG songs and then one of
his new songs as wdL We're only gonna play one song we wrote together: Tell MeT
However, after Taylor Is finished touring with Anne Ray (from October 4 tii Christinas,
including a stint in Europe); and LeMaster finishes Iris solo touring, the two plan to .-j
release their album, around tins time next yev.
But don’t get too used to Taylor sticking around Because you
this ghi will take off next *1 do miss Los Angeles a whole tot* she
perfect workL I'd love to be able to afford to spend half my time here
there.' [Deirrtre Sayre]
