About This Event
Taylor Dayne is an American pop icon with a career spanning over three decades. Her groundbreaking debut single Tell It To My Heart turned Taylor into an overnight international star in 1987. She followed the smash hit with seventeen Top 20 singles over the course of her career, including number one hits Prove Your Love, Love Will Lead You Back, and Ill Always Love You.
Taylor has sold over 75 million albums and singles worldwide, earned three Grammy nominations, an American Music Award, multiple New York Music Awards, received New York Music Hall of Fame honors, and ranked Number 18 Female Dance Artist of All Time by Rolling Stone magazine. Equally recognized for her songwriting talent, Taylor wrote many of her own hits as well as Tina Turners Whatever You Want. With a truly distinctive vocal style and powerful range, she created a unique vocal sound all her own that defined an era by her music.
As the late 80s moved into the 90s, Taylors chart-topping songs came with her. Her cover of Barry Whites Cant Get Enough Of Your Love and Send Me A Lover brought a strength and power to a female voice seldom heard in history. Taylor has appeared in film, television, and stage, from Broadway favorites like Elton Johns award-winning production of Aida, Mel Brooks Archie and Mehitable, to working with legendary composer Jules Styne to reprise the role of Fanny Brice on Broadway.
Taylors growth as an artist was enhanced by the birth of her twins in early 2002. Her voice became stronger and more meaningful as she took on empowerment as a single mother, surrogacy and parenthood head-on. Taylor also became a voice and an advocate for working woman, samesex marriage, parenting and fertility.
In September 2020, Taylor competed in the Fox hit show The Masked Singer for the fourth season. Taylor can now add Emmy Award winner to her resume. Her collaboration with Skip Martin, of Kool and the Gang, with a total of 29 legendary artists came together to revamp Curtis Mayfields People Get Ready which benefited the Atlanta division of St.
Jude Childrens Hospital. For the 35th anniversary of Tell It To My Heart, Taylor released the cult classic with electronic music group Cash Cash.
