Folk Pop from TerraTara

TerraTara is an acoustic singer-songwriter who, as a dual citizen of the USA and Canada, spends her time between Slocan in British Columbia and Southern Oregon. Taking inspiration from the beauty of nature, she has a completely off-grid cabin in the Canadian mountains with it’s own clean fresh water supply, allowing the artist to escape the modern world and reconnect with the natural one.

As fate would have it, she was named after the famous site in Ireland, The Hill of Tara, making her connection to, and influence by, nature especially poignant. Having always been asked if she pronounced her name as ‘Terra’ of ‘Tara’, she decided to combine the two to create her artist name TerraTara.

With her own music she plays guitar, mandolin, piano and all kinds of percussive instruments since starting out composing music throughout the 2000s. Initially playing just the guitar, she made the switch to the more mobile mandolin when she began traveling the world, making it easier to carry her instrument while on the road and busking on the streets.

Picking up influences and styles from all over the world, she weaves elements of traditional Eastern European, Middle Eastern, Indian, Irish, folk and reggae music into her unique sound. Now working on both new and old material as studio recordings, she dropped her first single in October of 2020 with the track “Ain’t Gonna Let Them”, followed up by the single “Waiting for the Rain” released last year.

Now she brings us her latest work with her new single titled “A Love, Tantalize” featuring her delicate vocal work floating above a rhythmic arrangement of reggae-style bass and percussion. Spinning a hypnotic sound, with her new single TerraTara offers a timeless folksy sound that blends her inspirations collected from all over the world and delivered by her accomplished songwriting and performance talents.
