Pirate Records, in conjunction with Dotson Wooley Entertainment Group and Lost Gold Records of Elkins Park, PA., are pleased to announce that banjoman Todd Taylor will appear on the
Jerry Lewis Muscular Dystrophy Telethon on Labor Day 2009. The MDA audience last year was comparable to that of the Emmy Awards, Golden Globes and Academy Awards. We’re in great company! The Telethon has an audience of some 40 million on both the national broadcast and on some 180 television stations carrying the show, as well as worldwide on the Internet thanks to the pro bono support of RealNetworks, Inc.
Todd has achieved many milestones in his recording life including being the first person to bring the Banjo as a solo instrument to the Rock and Roll Top 40 with Ricky Dees, Todd Pioneered Rock and Roll banjo playing. Todd was also the first to set the first worlds record with the banjo and many other personal victories he has accomplished in his life offstage. 
Be sure to call in and make your pledge this year to assist in the fight against MD!
His own battle with a degenerative muscle disease brings him a personal knowledge of what Jerry's Kids go through while they are fighting MD!  This will be Todd's second appearance on the Telethon and he is looking forward to lending his name and talent to this years fund raising event.

Todd will perform live from the world famous stage at
The South Point Hotel, Casino and Spa in Las Vegas, NV.  Be sure to tune in to the telethon and watch Todd perform, on September 7, accompanied by Master Guitar Player Robert Feathers and Master Bass Player Mike Moody, who has played on all of Todd's recordings in the past.  The Telethon is sure to be a big sucess this year!
