SUMMARY:Hughes Taylor's YOU-PICK-THE-SET-LIST LIVE in the Roots
DESCRIPTION:GET TICKETS HERE. \nThe blues rock trio\, the Hughes Taylor Band\, back at Canopy + the Roots in Dahlonega! \nThis time\, for ONE NIGHT ONLY — you get to pick the songs. \nChoose your top 10 favorite original studio tracks from across the Hughes Taylor catalog. \nThe show’s setlist will be built from fan votes. \nHughes Taylor is a blues-rock guitarist and songwriter from Macon\, Georgia\, known for his fiery sound and masterful guitar work rooted in the spirit of legends like Stevie Ray Vaughan\, Jimi Hendrix\, and the Allman Brothers. With raw riffs\, soulful grooves\, and a voice that cuts through with conviction\, Hughes has carved out a sound that’s both timeless and unmistakably his own.\nHis latest release\, Roasted (2025)\, is a two-part album over three years in the making. Part I: Dark Roast (2024) explores the heavier\, moodier side of blues rock\, while Part II: Light Roast brings a vibrant\, upbeat energy—together forming a full-bodied experience that earned a Blues Blast Award nomination for the single “Ballad of Big Bill McGuire.” The album was recorded across Georgia and mixed at the legendary Capricorn Sound Studios\, drawing on influences like Gov’t Mule\, Joe Bonamassa\, and Steve Gaines.\nHughes’s 2021 album Modern Nostalgia won the Atlanta Blues Society’s “Best Self-Produced CD” and received international acclaim from outlets including Blues Blast Magazine and Blues Matters. His earlier work—including Restless (2018)\, Hear My Melody (2016)\, and the covers record Good Blues\, Fast (2019)—showcases his dynamic range and deep love for the blues-rock tradition.\nIn 2020\, just before the pandemic brought live music to a halt\, Hughes toured the UK as support for the Heather Findlay Band\, earning high praise from press and fans alike. The final shows were captured and released as Live in the UK (2021) on CD and digital.\nFrom teenage basement recordings to international stages\, Hughes has lived and breathed music his whole life. Now\, with Roasted on the road\, he continues to fire up crowds across the country with his authentic sound and commitment to creating music that resonates across generations—proving that blues-rock is alive and well. \nConnect authentically to the artists by hearing them in our “speakeasy”-styled intimate listening room\, the Roots\, located underground beneath the Canopy social house. Hear the stories behind the songs as the artist(s) share their inspiration and even their heartaches. Doors open at 6:30pm; show starts at 7:00pm; VIP lounge with couches\, booths\, and tables are available. Reserve by emailing events@canopyandtheroots.com .
