Sharon Taylor


Meet Sharon Taylor:

In addition to a sound background in news, Sharon has some of the best pipes in the business, and is an outstanding member of the cast of thousands that gets up in the middle of the night to bring you AM Tampa Bay on 970 WFLA.

Sharon got her start in radio when she was singing in a band and a friend said, "they're looking for a girl to do news" at the local college radio station. She's been at it ever since. Graduating Magna Cum Laude with a degree in Mass Communications from the University of South Florida, she has worked in both radio and television, as a radio news anchor/producer, traffic reporter, talk show co-host and television assignment editor. She has also worked as a video producer and interviewed many well-known actors and film directors in Los Angeles and New York.

Sharon is an avid animal lover, sharing her home with two dogs and two cats.  She's also lead vocalist for Sharon and The Boys, a six-member band that plays premiere party events around the bay.  Scroll down and click on the bottom left of the page to see part of their video demo. 

Join Sharon Taylor every weekday morning 5:00 to 9:00 for AM Tampa Bay!

Your Last-Weekend-in-July Events Calendar is up
Tuesday 07-22-2008 10:43pm ET
Entertainment for the weekend runs the gamut this time. 

For concerts, you have anything from Brooks & Dunn, to Don Juceam's big band Sinatra music to Snoop Dogg or the Mayhem Festival at the Ford Amphitheatre. 

The quirky Beach Theatre on St. Pete Beach has a twist on its usual Rocky Horror film feature by throwing in a punk rock band, an extra horror flick and Bikini Night all rolled into one.

On Saturday, News Channel 8 helps out the Humane Society of Tampa Bay with its annual Pet Telethon, plus the SPCA Tampa Bay in Largo asks that you visit for its Christmas in July pet adoption specials.

Ruskin has a great thrift store sale (think huge bargains!) and who knows what treasures you'll find for pennies on your hard-earned dollar?

My guess is that lots of locals will show up for the old Spyglass Hotel's swan song next week on Clearwater Beach, especially now that it's implosion has turned into a venue for illusionist Criss Angel's Mindfreak show.  Can he get out of shackles on the 7th floor before the place falls down around him? 

Check it all out here.  Just CLICK to get to your latest events calendar.


Have fun,
Your Sharona

Pictures for You
Monday 07-21-2008 11:09pm ET
Former Tampa Tribune photographer, John W. Parker, Jr., was kind enough to come to University Community Hospital's 40th Birthday party for which Sharon and The Boys played Saturday night at the USF Sun Dome. 

If you'd like to take a look at some of his shots of my band, please click here.  

John also got some wonderful photos of the Johnny G Lyon Band performing and all the guests having a great time at the party.  Click here to get to John Parker's website and see some more of his amazing photography. 

John's the same photographer who got the great shot of that little Chihuahua sneaking a lick of an ice cream bar (pic #72 in this gallery) at our Fourth of July party at Vinoy Park.
