Eleven-year old Australian guitar prodigy Taj Farrant recorded his debut single last month at Lucky Boy studios, based in Byron Bay.
Just Can’t Sleep was produced by legendary guitarist and sound engineer Geoff Wright, and features local musicians Grant Gerarty (drums) and Thierry Fossemale (bass).
The single’s release is planned for September 21.
Byron local Scott Dorsey manages Taj and says, ‘In the last 12 months, Taj has appeared on Ellen and performed live with Carlos Santana, KISS, Rob Thomas, Orianthi and Human Nature’.
‘He has over a million followers online, with over 60 million video views in the last three months alone’.
