James Taylor, Jr.

A vocal prodigy, James Taylor, Jr. has been singing since 2 years old, performing since 4, writing poems since 6, and writing and composing songs since he was 12. His dramatic tenor voice is passionate and soulful, and his writing evokes emotion.

James started working with Kevin Wesley Williams of WesMix in 2020 just before a global shutdown. Since then, he’s been able to release “Pride (Stripped)”, a series of singles and EPs in the “hi / jt” series, the holiday song “You Don’t Have to Hurt”, and the gospel-inspired “I’m on Fire”. He is currently working on a full-length PRIDE album: inspired by, about, and dedicated to queer history.

James performs as a solo artist, in the pop duo Remington Taylor, and has performed in other bands in the past. From bars, local events, Pride events, and private shows, he’s performed throughout Michigan and Ohio, from Cadillac to Detroit, Bay City to Grand Rapids, and from Toledo all the way down to Dayton.

With vocals that blend together like chocolate syrup and milk, Remington Taylor is the duo to keep an ear out for. Their single ‘For Both of Us’ is the ear worm ballad we need between Adele songs.
