Tara has a few songs about women’s issues, domestic violence, and child abuse. She performs such theme based songs at women’s conferences and other relevant events to support organizations who assist with such matters. To book Tara for such a conference/event please click here.
Tara hails from Boston’s vibrant folk scene and has been performing all over New England for over seven years. Matt Smith of Club Passim, has called her an ‘innovator’. With a single djembe drum Tara pounds out foot tapping, rhythmic landscapes to back her effortless, melodic, and soulful voice. In a storyteller style, she draws you into life’s light and dark currents. Cross-cultural relationships, love, drowning both literally and figuratively, the joys of simple life, motherhood, and the struggle to be true to oneself, are just some of the subjects she sings about.
She has opened for and sometimes accompanied known artists such as Erin McKeown, Melissa Ferrick, Oen Kennedy, Susan Levine, James O’Brien, and Edie Carey. Some venues include Club Passim, The Mosaic in Avon, The Amazing Things Arts Center, King Hooper, and The Continental Café and Bakery.
Her most recent CD ‘River Belly’ (2005), and Tara’s debut CD “Caught Between the Woods and the Road” (2001) are both available online at www.cdbaby.com.
The renown Boston based guitarist Peter Parcek says: “Tara Greenblatt is modern vintage...she sings and writes with the wisdom of an old soul in a young form with a fresh perspective on our world.
“Really wonderful, beautiful, creative music filled with the spirit and
energy of powerful womanhood!” Patti DeRosa
