Duran Duran Drummer Roger Taylor Joins John Taylor to Help At-Risk Youth Make Music That Matters
Legendary Duran Duran drummer Roger Taylor is well aware of the power of music. Along with bassist John Taylor, keyboardist Nick Rhodes and singer Simon Le Bon, Taylor has been a force behind a band that has rocked the music industry for over three decades. So when the band’s manager asked if he wanted to use a short break during their tour to work in-studio with at-risk youth in the non-profit program Road Recovery, Taylor didn’t hesitate.
Road Recovery, in conjunction with mental health support, offers workshops and mentorship training for at-risk youth that focuses on music and recording projects. Influencers like the Duran Duran power team, help bring visibility to the non-profit while giving students the opportunity to collaborate with some of the best in the business— a business that has had more than its fair share of drug and alcohol addiction casualties.
