Taylor Harvey: News

The THB is all over the place nowadays. They loved us in Tulsa, the new CD's happening in the recording studio and of course we're always performing at your favorite spots around San Diego. Our newest adventure is a foray into the world of Facebook. Those of you out there with a Facebook account are welcome to become our fan. Just do a search for Taylor Harvey Band and we'll be at the top of the list. Thanks everyone for all your support.

Well, the trip to Tulsa for GeezerFest IV went very well. The guys all had a great time and played for a very enthusiastic house, leaving them wanting more. Now back and looking forward to some big changes, you better come see the band very soon!

The guys are taking a couple weeks off, with Taylor doing a couple solo shows to fill the loneliness. Gregg will be celegrating a birthday during this time, and some new song ideas will surely be tossed around. The party will reconvene at the Blarney Stone in El Cajon on the 21st, so be prepared to come out and help the band shake the dust off!

Wow! Here it is almost August and the band just keeps rocking through the heat. Work in the studio continues and we still hope for a CD release soon! Hope to see you at your local bar very soon!

June is here and the band is ready to rock in another great San Diego summer! Drum, bass and rhythm guitar tracks are done in the studio and lead guitar tracks get recorded this month, making the new CD very close to done! Check the calendar page for shows and check back here for more info.

May is looking to be a busy month for the band, and they're all over the map! From El Cajon to Ramona to Coronado, they're going to be at a venue near you this month, so check the calendar page to find out where you can check them out! In addition, drum tracks are down and sounding fantastic and that means the long-awaited new CD is one step closer to being done! Stay tuned here for updates!

Friday night at the Blarney Stone saw some great friends come out and party with the band. Many thanks to Tamara and her crew! Saturday at Pal Joey's was a great night of music, dancing and more friends. Who'da thought Bob Zito and Sparkling Kelly would show up on the same night, not to mention the Cartright/Taylor clan, Debbie and the rest of the friends who came out! It was a great time and the band will be back there soon. Sunday at the Plank was awesome! Summer is back in convincing style and the dawgs and burgers are flying off the grill! What a deal - sunshine, the beach, great grinds and cold drinks! Come on out and have Taylor introduce you to Miles. Next weekend it's back out to Don's for another fine weekend of roadhouse revelry. Hope to see you soon.

That cheeseburgers will once again be available at The Plank in I.B. on Sunday afternoons. After several weeks of thinking they were installing a large shower stall, Big Al has let slip that burgers should be ready to be served this weekend! The most southwesterly food in the continental U.S!

Due to a cancellation the THB will be playing this Saturday night, April 18 at Pal Joey's nightclub! The club is located at 5147 Waring Rd., just up the hill from I-8. Complete details on the calendar page. We hope you can make it!

Don't forget to bring your friends! The Second Wind has a big, beautiful stage with matching PA and lights, not to mention the full bar! It's a little bit 'o heaven and it's right close by. We hope to see you there thursday night!

...this weekend to gear up for the Thursday, April 9 show at the Second Wind bar in Santee. 8 to midnights, we hope to see you all there!

...then on to the Second Wind in Santee on April 9! We hope as many of you can make it to that one as made it to JP's Pub. What a rockin' good time we had there! Many thanks to ya'll and we'll see you again soon!

Friday, March 6 the band will be playing another new venue, JP's Pub in Tierrasanta. We'd love to see lots of friendly faces, so make plans to join in the fun! Details on Calendar page.

We in the band would like to thank everyone who came out to the Blarney Stone last night. It was a great party with some wonderful people we haven't seen in way too long! Larry and Delphine, Mike and Kelly, Brian, Cheri, Steve and the list goes on. You made our night!

th

This will be our first night at the Stone, so come on out and have a drink with us enjoy the ambience. The club is located on 2nd St. in El Cajon.

We'll be playing at The Blarney Stone in El Cajon and at JP's Pub in Tierrasanta in the coming weeks. Check the calendar page for more info and plan on coming out!

If you're one of the many people who don't like to venture too far from home to do your partying anymore, feel free to let us know where we can play that's close enough to you that you can come and join us! We're expanding our venues this year, and you can have a say by sending us potential spots via email at THB@TaylorHarveyBand.com.

2009 looks to be a great year for the THB and we hope to see you along the way. Happy New Year everyone!

We in the THB sincerely hope that all of our friends and fans are sharing wonderful holidays with their loved ones. We are excited about what's coming up in the future and we hope to see you all very soon!

As many of you know, our lovable Bassman Mike was briefly sidelined for a medical proceedure and missed last weekend at Don's. Many thanks to Phil Bensimon from The Tornado Magnets for filling and we're looking forward to having Mike back in action when we return to Cheers in Ramona Oct. 10.

Due to unforseen circumstances, the band has cancelled it's participation in the San Diego Parrot Head Club's anniversary party on September 27. We apologize to the SDPHC and wish them well in their fundraising efforts.

This will be of interest to those of you who've seen Taylor's acoustic show! He's spending a few nights at King's Ransom Studios working with producer Jeff Sers on a solo acoustic CD. Night #1 went very well and the final product should be something worth listening to and very different from what the THB does as a band. Stay tuned for release date.

Taylor celebrated his birthday (Saturday) at the Mission Bay Yacht Club playing out on the deck as the tide came in. A nice turnout of friends helped with cake on the break and as the truck was being loaded Cap'n Dave brought his cruiser around and a few late-night specialists went aboard for a beautiful moonight cruise around the bay complete with a nightcap at the Barefoot Bar. Sunday at the Plank was equally fun with pickin', grinnin' and stories from the weekend that'll never make it onto these pages! Thanks to one and all for making it a great weekend.

Just home from a THB rehearsal session and I'm very excited about two new (to us) songs and the revival of a song off the Beauty In The Eye CD we've not done in at least two years. Looking forward to breaking them out at McP's on June 20!

Well, if you weren't at the Candye Kane benefit at the Casbah last night, you missed a very special night of incredible music! Great sets by Sara Petite, The Tornado Magnets and Years Around the Sun were topped by the inimitable Mojo Nixon joining Joey Harris & the Mentals for an over-the-top set of rock & roll. What a great reason to stay out late on a school night!
