HANGING WITH TAJ FARRANT

Taj Farrant - if you haven't hear his name yet, you will. He is one of THE most promising young guitar players on the planet. He's 14, has 1M followers on Facebook and is in the process of making his first full-length album in the midst of touring the U.S.. This past Saturday on Doppler's Gear Garage, Taj and I got a chance to catch up via Zoom and this is the slightly edited version with improved audio.

I was fortunate enough to attend the HOB show in Anaheim and some smaller NAMM shows with Taj. Words are too insufficient to describe how amazing the HOB show was! Thanks for the post and all that you do for our community.

Great interview Doug! You're right about Taj; insanely talented, but such a cool person - definitely an old soul!

This boy has worked so hard without effort, like a sledge hammer on a chain gang, he's awsome ! People knit-pick asking Taj how he do this and do that on his guitar, and I notice he silently scrambles to find words to explain it, he don't know why he does what he does. He feels it...I's God playing through his fingers, cause like when he play, it's like LIGHTEN-STRIKE through the nerves. He could teach you all day long and it wont have the same effect on a person as if when he plays, A PHENONENON !❤❤❤

Saw Taj live 3 x. He's the best guitarist I have ever seen. And I saw Paul Gilbert, Sungha Jung, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Jonny Lang, Kenny Wayne Shepard, Lenny Kravitz

This is wonderful documenting of his "puberty voice" days. Reminds me of Peter from the Brady Bunch. Time to change? Got to rearrange? Anyways, Taj is the new guitar god ladies. I wish I was younger and more vibrant.
