Poway OnStage Concert

TAJ MAHAL is a towering musical figure — a legend who transcended the blues not by leaving them behind, but by revealing their magnificent scope to the world. No one is as simultaneously traditional and avant-garde as the legend Taj Mahal.  Taj is joined on stage by bassist BILL RICH, percussionist KESTER SMITH, and steel guitarist BOBBY INGANO.

Born Henry St. Claire Fredericks Jr., Mahal is a three-time GRAMMY winner, a 14-time GRAMMY nominee and a member of the Blues Hall of Fame.  In his 50-plus year career, Mahal has reached icon status as a singer-songwriter, composer, guitarist, and multi-instrumentalist. His love for music began as a boy in Springfield, Massachusetts, growing up with a gospel choir singing mother and his jazz pianist father who introduced him not only to jazz, but also the music of the Caribbean, Africa and South Pacific. This became the foundation for Mahal’s eclectic approach to the Blues.
