SINGER/SONGWRITER TAYLOR Mathews performs his latest hits for studets at a school assembly.

Taylor Mathews, a singer/songwriter originally discovered on NBC’s America’s Got Talent as a top finalist recently completed a 2 and 1/2 month US and Canadian tour as direct support for Disney’s R5 band in which he and other of the show’s finalists played to large theaters filled with thousands of fans.

This month, Mathews is embarking on a two month, 55 show tour across the US with radio and high school/college stops along the way.

Cox High School is one such stop for Mathews this Friday, January 17, where he will perform a “FREE” concert as he will in Virginia Beach that evening.

Mathews will perform twice during 3rd block in the auditorium, from 10:45-11:15 a.m. and again from 11:45-12:15 p.m.

Mathews will also sell CDs following each concert for anyone interested.
