He will hold concerts in Charlotte, Asheville, Chapel Hill, Raleigh and Wilmington.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor will help spread Senator Obama\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s message of change to Tar Heel voters and encourage Obama supporters to get out and vote early.<\/p>\n<p>North Carolina is a battleground state this year because residents cannot afford four more years of the same Bush policies that John McCain is offering.  Senator Barack Obama is the only candidate that will bring the change North Carolina needs to create jobs and help our economy recover.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor was raised in Chapel Hill, where his father was the Dean of the University of North Carolina School of Medicine.  Over the course of his long career, he has earned 40 gold, platinum and multi-platinum awards and 5 Grammy Awards.
