From the soul shaking harmonies and masterful songwriting to the endearing onstage moments, Bonnie & Taylor have captivated audiences all across the world. From their most recent global success I See Red tallying over 200 million streams and a deal with Columbia Records to playing countless live shows and festivals around CO and the Western US; tours to Germany, Canada and Sweden; multiple studio albums; exciting collaborations with other area musicians and hundreds of students through summer camps and private lessons Bonnie & Taylor have established themselves as a potent creative force of the vibrant Colorado music scene.   Bonnie & Taylor Sims have recorded a killer new album with plans for a fall 2023 full release and singles releasing starting in mid-June. This record is a collection of songs that define the new sound and new direction for Bonnie & Taylor in their unique western roots style. Songs that grew out of a shifting world marked by the juxtaposition of beauty and pain, hope and destruction. The album reveals a sound that blends bleeding pop rock with acoustic troubadour wit as the musicians explore and create together. Joined by bassist Bradley Morse and Kevin Matthews on drums this record is a refreshing showcase of seasoned songwriting, production and performances.
