2024 SEASON FINALE: Mr TaylorMade and The TaylorMade Band!! Costumes welcome but not required. Ouachita Live is a concert series the last Friday of the month from Mar-Oct. Free to attend but donations encouraged! Food truck and spirits on-site. Bring a chair.
Mr. Taylormade has created a unique entertainment brand, fusing hard-hitting grooves, tight vocal harmonies, and mind-blowing solos combined with non-stop energy. Each band member is a multi-instrumentalist. Together they play all genres of music from Funk, Soul, RnB, Rock, Pop and Blues. Audiences around the country have raved about this band's performances and entertainment value, as they not only produce original music, but also awesome mashup covers from the likes of Aretha Franklin, Anita Baker, Luther Vandross, The Gap Band, Earth, Wind & Fire, and other greats.
The Taylormade Band hails from Northeast Louisiana (Bastrop), and is headed by Mark "Mr. Taylormade" Taylor, Jr. This talented band leader is the grandson of the late, great legend, Henry Dorsey from the Delta Blues duo Po' Henry and Tookie. Mr. TaylorMade won the 2024 Ouachita River Blues Society (ORBS) Blues Challenge in the band category, meaning he and his band will compete on an international stage in Memphis in 2025 to represent Louisiana. The Taylormade Band had the honor of performing for the Louisiana Grammy Association as well as opening for RnB star Tank.
