"What a magical evening! A lovely stroll around Mary Moore Searight park, accompanied by Will and his violin, a short beautiful meditation by the water, followed by an intimate concert. I can't neglect to mention the sunset, cicadas and big beautiful sky.
Will is right! The natural setting, acoustic music and feeling of camaraderie worked their magic. Heading home feeling grounded, relaxed and happy.
Thank you Will Taylor and Bob Livingston."
Redd Volkaert, September 2019
"What a wonderful chance for folks to enjoy the outside and hear beautiful music in a great atmosphere without the bar/club scene"
J. Breeding, October 2019
"Great music in a beautiful setting tonight! Loved it! I’m already signed up for two more. I highly recommend Strings in the Woods for a relaxing evening of great entertainment!"
Rebecca, May 2019
“This was an extremely relaxing, meditative way to end a day of exploring Austin. The violin/fiddle was gorgeous and the privacy of the concert was so intimate. It was a beautiful night and experience. I definitely recommend it.”
Vernon, April 2019
“This was a unique and special trip through time and nature, away from the hustle and bustle of automobiles and ever present screen proliferation. It is a very beautiful park in itself, but even better when you add the wonderful music, in a timeless retreat from now to any point in history with string music, you lose track of time and get closer to nature. Will and Karen were great guides, knowledgeable and thoughtful, and very talented.”
"Strings in the Woods is an amazing experience from start to finish. Not only are you in unique settings but the music is incredible and it’s all a very memorable experience. I’d highly recommend checking them out." Amy Weiss
"This was my first Strings in the Woods show at Carson Creek Ranch and I have to say it was nothing short of spectacular. I have lived in Austin for over 25 years so really appreciate the "keep it real" culture which artists like Will Taylor continue to foster with creative events like this. The venue was great (despite the planes overhead), the musicianship was top notch, and thanks so much for introducing me to Alyse Black. She fit perfectly with the band and the whole atmosphere you were trying to create. She has an amazing voice. Looking forward to more of these kinds of shows!" Mike Stelfox
"Such a quintessential Austin experience! Will & Marc are excellent musicians (and great hikers while playing for us!), and the combination of hiking in the "woods" - the dry Barton Creek bed - with the wooden instruments was completely relaxing and enjoyable. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!" Ricardo Guerrero

Ariane, August 2018
“Amazing evening! One of my favorite nights I’ve had here in Austin (I’ve been here 23 years)! The guided hike was really informative about natural wildlife and the whole time we were surrounded by the sweet sounds of a solo violinist. It was so lovely! And the concert at the end sounded absolutely beautiful as we laid back in the grass and watched the sunset fade into a starry night sky…”
Kathrine, August 2018
“Stellar experience now added to my list of magical moments. Loved!”
Cassandra, April 2019
“Will took us on a musical journey in nature that was incredible and therapeutic. We had a small group and hiked along a trail that was fairly leveled due to one of the hiker’s physical condition. Along the way Will made sure all of us were taken care of and having a good time. We were later joined by another amazing musician/cellist Charles. The only downside to this trip is that whenever I’m hiking now I miss Will and his gang of musicians. I’ve been spoiled. Next time I will bring my teenage kids.”

Shantan, September 2018
“The whole experience was phenomenal. I got to see a side of Austin I didn't think I would. Will was very knowledgeable and provided very interesting facts about the city. The music was lovely and the backdrop on the river was fantastic. Overall a great experience and highly recommend for anyone spending some time in Austin."
Rebecca, August 2018
“The combination of being engulfed by nature and Will filling the air with music was a delight to my mind and soul. Will is a brilliant violinist and awesome singer. He greeted me and my family with open arms and immediately made us a part of his community. An openness to nature and humble, gifted musicians are beautiful facets of Austin.”
