Tiny Bookshop Concerts at The Bottom are a series of live performances showcasing local talent in an intimately empowering environment. In this episode, Ty Murray details how the concert series came about and the work it takes to bring it together. The episode culminates with a performance by multi-talented artist and local musician W. James Taylor. W. James Taylor was born in April of 1949 and grew up in the Austin Homes and Lonsdale Homes areas of Knoxville as one of eleven children. Art and music are in his blood, and he says they are things he could “just always do.” Today, he uses those gifts to enrich the lives of others. He plays music in senior living facilities and for events, helps non-profits and arts organizations with graphic design needs, and uses his Geneva Galleries space to support emerging artists.Tiny Bookshop Concert Series is sponsored in part by community supporters TN Arts Commission and Sadie Pearl Records!
