ABOUT

Dynamic r&b/soul/pop artist taragirl has been wowing audiences with her incredible voice and energetic stage performance for the last few years since relocating to Philly from NYC. With two indie albums (The 26th Power and The City: Soul Suite) under her belt, press clippings citing her as the "continuation of the Philly soul sound" (GO Magazine) and the chops to back it up, taragirl has quickly made a name for herself in the City of Brotherly Love. She’s had the privilege of sharing the stage with artists like Chaka Khan, Amy Winehouse and Jill Scott, while being handpicked to open for soul-stirring acts like Chrisette Michele, Leela James and The Brand New Heavies, and with the help of her sensational live band has played to many a sold-out crowd. She’s been named one of ‘10 Artists to Watch’ by Philadelphia Citypaper and featured in Billboard.com, The Daily News, and GO Magazine. Having just released a debut music video for her single “The City,” she is preparing to release new music in 2011 and continue writing and performing as much as possible. taragirl describes her music: where soul and girl power unite!
