Livingston Taylor

Livingston Taylor with Opening Act TBA
Livingston Taylor’s career as a professional musician spans more than five decades, encompassing performance, songwriting, recording, and teaching. Often described as equal parts Mark Twain, college professor, and musical icon, Livingston maintains an active touring schedule of over 100 shows a year, delighting audiences with his wit, warmth, and an expansive repertoire drawn from more than 25 albums, along with beloved classics.
As a songwriter, Livingston has penned Top-40 hits recorded by his brother James Taylor, and over the years has shared the stage with artists such as Joni Mitchell, Linda Ronstadt, Fleetwood Mac, and Jimmy Buffett.
Equally at home across genres—folk, pop, classical, gospel, and jazz—his performances range from upbeat storytelling and intimate ballads to full orchestral concerts, all delivered with his trademark ease and connection.
For over three decades, alongside his performing career, Livingston served as a full professor at Berklee College of Music, where he created and taught the acclaimed course Stage Performance. His former students include Charlie Puth, John Mayer, Susan Tedeschi, Molly Tuttle, Liz Longley, and Gavin DeGraw. Today, Livingston takes this course “on the road,” teaching at colleges and institutions nationwide, including the Frost School of Music at the University of Miami, NASA’s Goddard Space Center, and Tulane Law School.
His book, Stage Performance, drawn from the course and more than 50 years (5,000+ hours) of real-world stage experience, has become a go-to resource for performers and presenters seeking to elevate their craft from good to truly professional.
An airplane-flying, motorcycle-riding, singing storyteller, Livingston Taylor continues to captivate audiences wherever he performs—whether solo, with a band, or in front of an orchestra—bringing heart, humor, and humanity to every stage.
