About
Taylor Roberts is a 7-string guitarist and music educator based in Jacksonville, FL, celebrated for his ability to transform the extended-range guitar into an entire orchestra of sound. Named Best Musician in the Best of Jax Awards, Taylor’s playing seamlessly blends the sophistication of jazz with the soul of R&B, the fluidity of classical, and the improvisational spark of modern fusion.

Offstage, he shares his passion as a dedicated educator, inspiring students to find their own voice on the instrument while passing down the traditions that shaped his artistry.
Whether headlining intimate solo sets or collaborating with ensembles, Taylor’s music invites listeners into a rich, layered soundscape where every note feels both precise and personal.
