Tallan Latz the New in the Age of Blues

If you have a child that loves to play music and he's good at it, should you deter him from playing professionally? The state of Wisconsin is doing just that. If you have child stars under fourteen or fifteen do they fall under the child labor laws? If you say yes let me remind you there never would have been a Mary Kate and Ashley boom before they were teenagers. Bill Cosby's show would have never been the hit it was. Today, there wouldn't be a Disney empire built by child actors and of course Noggin would have to fire some of their stars as well. So should these stars be band from performing? According to 8-year-old guitar wiz has reason to play the blues by Carrie Antlfinger, someone sent an anonymous letter to the state of Wisconsin concerning Tallan Latz playing the blues.

Tallan Latz is an 8 year old boy who can pack the house. He is said to be an old man trapped in a little boy's body because no one that young can possibly have so much sadness (blues, soul) in them. Tallan Latz plays festivals and clubs. He drags his father to where he wants to go. Any child that can be that focused needs an outlet. Tallan Latz outlet is playing the blues for people. He has played in the infamous Chicago's House of Blues and has played with Les Paul and Jackson Browne.

The anonymous e-mail that was sent to state officials stated Tallan was too young to perform in bars and nightclubs because of his age and state child labor laws. Tallan Latz's booking agent received a threatening letter. She feels the same person wrote both and it was probably someone who is jealous of the little boy's talent. Although Tallan Latz is only eight he can outperform adults and as adults' egos go the adults are trying to eliminate the competition.
