Sweet Baby James IS Back Again
Cheney Hall welcomes back Steamroller, the James Taylor tribute experience that feels more like coming home than a concert.
Since 2019, Sam Hyman has toured the United States as Steamroller, bringing Taylor's most beloved catalog to audiences who know every word and feel every note. Sam's musical pedigree runs deep: a BMI songwriter and publisher with a degree from Mercyhurst University's D'Angelo School of Music, he has composed for global music libraries, scored international television productions, and placed original work with Warner Bros. Music Group. When he steps onstage as James Taylor, he brings that same depth of craft and care to every song.
But this isn't just a greatest-hits rundown.
Between songs, Sam shares the stories behind the music, the moments of heartbreak, hope, and wandering that gave these classics their meaning. Audiences sing along, lean in, and leave feeling something genuinely real.
This is a live James Taylor tribute show built for the fans who grew up with these songs and the ones discovering them for the first time. Fire and Rain. Carolina in My Mind. Sweet Baby James.<a href="https://www.cheneyhall.org/james-taylor-steamroller" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Get Tickets Here!</a>
