Multiple Grammy and Dove Award-winners Russ Taff and Steve Taylor will appear in one electrifying night together on the The Almost Farewell Tour. Taff will be both supported and backed on all dates by his longtime friend and collaborator and his Some Band. “Maya Angelou said ‘This is a wonderful day. I’ve never seen this one before,’” says Russ Taff. “That’s the way I feel about this tour – it’s going to be so unique and different than any I’ve done. Steve and I did a concert together several months ago and we blew the roof off the place. Steve was stunningly good, it’s been years since I’ve had that much fun on stage! I’m sograteful I get to tour with Steve, I’ve been a fan for a long time. In fact, I remember Mom playing Steve Taylor records when I was like two–years–old. Ha ha ha, kidding Steve, ha ha ha!” “I’m mostly doing this tour as an excuse to hear Russ Taff sing every night,” says Steve Taylor. “But I’m also looking forward to re-assembling Some Band and playing songs I haven’t performed in a few decades.” From a troubled childhood, to the top of the charts, from impossible heights of creative success to his hard-won battle with the bottle, Russ Taff has told the story of his extraordinary life countless times over the course of his career – but never quite like this. Taff has inspired like-minded artists from Kings of Leon to Mercy Me with an influential singing style and body of work and classic songs that have related his spiritual journey with stunning power and deeply personal detail, how he was brought low by trauma and addiction and raised up again through the power of love and faith. Hailed by Prism as a “renaissance man,” musician/filmmaker/writer/producer/entrepreneur Steve Taylor has created a remarkably diverse body of work over the past four decades. Taylor’s work as a music video director and filmmaker saw him make history as the only artist to twice win Billboard Music Video Awards for self-directed music videos and also includes iconic music videos for such artists as Sixpence None the Richer, Newsboys, Fleming & John, Rich Mullins, and more. Taylor has also crafted a remarkably award-winning body of work as the director, writer, producer of numerous feature films, documentaries, animated TV series, and more.
