The 29th TAXI Road Rally music conference is in the books, and by all accounts, it was a smash hit. But rather than hearing it from us, we think this quote from TAXI member Andre Stepanian sums up what it’s like to attend the Rally:
“I can't believe I'm here once again!! First year: shy and trying to make friends only with two libraries; second year: signed tracks, gazillion collabs, placement, and with fourteen libraries; third year: being invited to group dinners, hangouts with members that I have worked with that I wished I would be a part of in the first year. Michael promised us that every year would be better than the last one, and he delivered.
For those who have never attended a Road Rally or think TAXI is fake, you need to try to make the next one, and I assure you, when you do, you will have a moment of regret for why you waited so long to do so. I will never miss a TAXI Road Rally. Onwards to 2026!!!”
