Dudley Taft

Dudley’s music career began in high school when he founded the band Space Antelope with friend Trey Anastasio (of Phish). In the 1990’s he founded Seattle band Sweet Water, touring the states with Monster Magnet, Candlebox and Alice in Chains. After recording two albums for Atlantic, he left the band to join Second Coming. More touring followed with an album on Capitol Records and a taste of success thanks to the single “Vintage Eyes” which made it to #10 on the Rock Radio charts. In 2006, Dudley started playing blues rock in Seattle, and released the album Left For Dead in 2011. Deep Deep Blue followed in 2013, and along with Left For Dead was released in Europe on the M.i.G. label. Screaming In The Wind debuted in 2014 followed by Skin and Bones in 2015, featuring Reese Wynans on keyboards. Live In Europe was released in 2016 and Taft's latest studio album, Summer Rain, was released on September 15th, 2017. All his albums are available on iTunes, Amazon and CDBaby and his website. Dudley now makes his home in Cincinnati, OH.
Since 2011 the Dudley Taft band has toured the US and Europe, playing clubs, theaters and festivals. In 2017, Dudley was nominated "Best Guitarist" by the European Blues Society.
