ACQUIRED TASTE originated in 2019 as the vocal pairing of Philip Seawell and Jackie Oleson, whose smooth vocal blend has enchanted listeners in the Central Texas area from the Hill Country supper clubs to Downtown Austin black tie events.
In 2022, they mounted an extensive search for a bass player and were pleased to have Jonathan Babiak accept their invitation to join the band. The three continue the Acquired Taste brand -- acoustic covers ranging from originals to popular tunes -- of such legendary artists as The Beatles, Feist, Halsey, Bonnie Raitt, Elvis, James Taylor, Linda Ronstadt, and many others.
Acquired Taste are dedicated to entertaining folks, singing heartfelt tunes to make you smile, tap your foot, and sing along.
