soulgifts – Telling Tales

This dreadlocked dude has awesome talent. Hat on head, denim jacketed Taj Farrant is a  nine years old semi-finalist on Australia’s Got Talent. He’s been the playing guitar for three years.

From Long Jetty in  the central coast of New South Wales,   Taj is the youngest artist ever to be fully endorsed by the likes of Gibson guitars and Elixir strings. That means all his gear is given to him.

“My dad took me to an AC/DC concert two and a half years ago, and I said I want to do that for the rest of my life,” Taj said. And he has.  Taj only needs to listen to a song a couple of times and he can play it.

I’m sure we will be hearing a lot more from this kid.

For those of you who cannot access the above video in your country for some reason, here is one from his performance on the Ellen Degeneris show. Hopefully that will play.
