Guitarist Melvin Taylor Releases New Music Video, “Star Spangled Blues”
New Music Video
“Star Spangled Blues”
vision of our national song has come.
At the hands of virtuoso guitarist Melvin Taylor, The Star Spangled Blues takes us
on a kinetic musical journey, blasting through existing musical genres and creating something unique – something never heard before. Taylor’s blazing guitar work is accompanied by the magnetic performance of Reverend Xavier Chance whose unique spoken words re-conceive the words of Francis Scott Key as they were originally posed – as a question.
The accompanying music film takes us on a journey through space and time rewinding American history putting the choice of citizenship back in the hands of the individual.
Between our July 4th independence and the infamy of 9/11 lies The Star Spangled Blues.
Star Spangled Blues audio and video is being distributed by The Orchard, a pioneer of digital music. Audio verison is available on iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, emusic, and hundreds of digital and mobile outlets around the world. Video available on iTunes, hulu, VEVO and YouTube.
