Music Legend James Taylor Highlights Concert MBA at Annual Convention & Expo

You know his songs; you know his story; you almost feel like you know him.

The Mortgage Bankers Association announces legendary singer/songwriter and multiple Grammy winner James Taylor will take the stage at this year’s Concert MBA. The concert takes place during the MBA Annual Convention & Expo in Boston Oct. 23-26.

We Can’t Wait to See Your Smiling Face
James Taylor’s music embodies the art of songwriting in its most personal and universal forms. He is a master at describing specific, even autobiographical situations in a way that resonates with people everywhere. In 1971, Taylor was on the cover of Time magazine, heralded as the harbinger of the singer-songwriter era. More than four decades later his warm baritone, introspective lyrics and unique guitar playing still blaze a path to which young musicians aspire.

Taylor has sold more than 100 million albums throughout his career and has earned 40 gold, platinum, and multi-platinum awards, multiple Grammy Awards and has been inducted into both the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the prestigious Songwriters Hall of Fame. In June, Taylor was announced as a recipient of this year’s Kennedy Center Honors, recognizing a lifetime of artistic achievement.

From Fire and Rain to Your Smiling Face to Sweet Baby James and countless others, his songs have had a profound influence on songwriters and music lovers from all walks of life.

Don’t miss your chance to see this beloved music legend and Massachusetts native perform live in Boston at the MBA Annual Convention & Expo.
