Tao cites influences including jazz guitar pioneer Jim Hall, electronic musician/composer Scott Morgan, the father of Bebop Charlie Parker, as well as a wealth of film music composers. Tao Højgaard´s origins as a jazz guitarist come from influence and involvement with Copenhagen´s jazz scene in the 90´s.
