They help keep children off the streets, away from drugs, and offer a positive environment that will benefit them for the rest of their lives."It's humbling, definitely," Taylor said after receiving a round of applause upon entering the Academy. "You know, especially sometimes when we're on the road, you forget the impact that you have on people. To kind of feel that was definitely pretty cool."Taylor, who grew up in poverty in Iowa, raised by his mother, added: "If a guy like me can make it just by taking a little talent and chasing a huge dream then why can't somebody else, especially when you do it from the heart and you do it with the kind of passion that drives you to do it for real."Check out a video report from Keloland TV below.Brennan Rock & Roll Academy founder Chuck Brennan has a lifelong love for rock and roll.
