Vocalist Rene Taylor is a true Tucson treasure. She has captivated audiences locally as well as nationally and internationally. She has performed in a variety of venues ranging from concert settings, headlining at galas, enamoring audiences on cruise ships to charming private party-goers. In her twenty plus years of performing she has been referred to as a true artist with a sultry voice, amazing talent and a classic style. Rene’s love for jazz started at an early age listening to Peggy Lee, Sarah Vaughn, Rosemary Clooney and Ella Fitzgerald. Rene has a wide range of song selections which will provide you with a memorable experience and will leave you with a desire to hear more.
Rene did a great job. Very personable, good music, engages audience. Thank you Rene.
Response from Rene Taylor Jazz Singer:
Thanks Norma! You provided a gorgeous setting for an exquisite Christmas party for your friends!
René has been working with us at Brookdale Santa Catalina twice a month for a long time. Our Residents Love her, she is very professional and Fun to listen to. Her Jazz music and great interaction with people connects so well in the environment. Her voice is wonderful and her personality makes it very easy to work with.
I have had Rene Taylor come and perform for my residents at Amber Lights for over a year and I have to say that she is the most professional entertainer that comes here. She is engaging and informative and a top notch singer to boot!
Rene comes every month for us at our retirement home and is such a pleasure to work with! She is quick to respond and always on time, always working with our programming schedule. Our residents really enjoy when she comes and what is nice is that she will even give us a bit of background about the song she is about to sing (the history of the song, who performer originally, and the year it came out) We always look forward to when she comes!
We love having Rene Taylor perform for our residents! She is a great singer with such a beautiful voice. We always look forward to having her perform! ❤️
Total perfection....could not ask for better. Brought elegance and sophistication to our event. Loved her and cannot wait to book her again!!!!
