Backed by acoustic musicians in a subdued setting, DOREEN TAYLOR: STRIPPED offers Doreen’s unique fusion of soothing vocals, engaging and upbeat showmanship and homegrown country-rock roots in an understated homage to her Broadway roots.
"I am so excited to be able to come back to my musical roots doing my own music,” says Doreen. “This is what started it all for me – Broadway! It’s a rare opportunity to see me stripped down to what my music is all about- the beauty of the lyric and the vocals. I love touring with my big production show, ‘Doreen Taylor LIVE,’ but this acoustic, "cabaret-style" show highlights who I am as an artist in an intimate and emotional light."
To headline on a stage that once showcased such greats like Kristen Chenoweth, Cuba Gooding Jr., Rosie O'Donnell, Bette Midler, Liza Minnelli and Paul Newman is “the greatest thrill a performer could hope for,” Doreen adds. “What amazingly big shoes to fill. I can't wait to plant my stilettos in NYC!"

Doreen’s hometown upbringing gave way to a sudden and remarkable career at an early age when her town, family, congregation and most importantly Doreen herself, realized the true power and strength of her voice. While some singers feel performing since childhood has burned them out or shown them the wrong side of the industry, she believes her young start has only made her stronger as a vocalist, songwriter and performer. Doreen lays out all her emotions on stage to be transported into the hearts and ears of everyone in attendance. Showmanship has always been as important to her as the music behind it. And DOREEN TAYLOR: STRIPPED showcases another side in her evolution as an artist to be reckoned with.
