Bossa Blue presents: James Taylor: ReIMAGNED - A Tribute To The James Taylor Songbook “Brad Cole brings us JT's music not merely copied, but performed and reimagined with a great band led by an engaging singer and musician. I was blown away to hear so many of the songs I played with James night after night given a fresh new twist while maintaining the original emotion and musical "feel" of this great body of work.” Andy Muson - Bass for JT’s “Walking Man” album & tour “Every tune has found its own unique blend of Bossa Nova, Samba, Jazz, Rock and Soul, painting JT’s iconic melodies with passion and harmony…and let’s not mince words here, this show ROCKS!!!!” Singer Songwriter & Bossa Blue band leader - Brad Cole About Bossa Blue Bossa Blue is a critically acclaimed musical collective that has built a reputation for delivering unforgettable live performances.
