About
Tara Minton is an Australian born harpist, vocalist and composer. She is proudly endorsed by Camac Harps and holds a master’s degree in jazz performance from The Guildhall School of Music and Drama. She has worked with Björk, Tom Walker, ESKA, Stan Sulzmann, Tony Kofi, Geoff Gascoyne and the Australian World Orchestra and sings with “The Blues and Roots Ensemble” – a London based nine-piece band celebrating the music of Charles Mingus.
In 2020 Tara released her critically acclaimed album ‘Please Do Not Ignore The Mermaid’ exploring themes of climate change and mer-myth. She consolidated the album’s success with an intimate duo album released in January 2022 – ‘Two For The Road’ with bassist Ed Babar. The album was produced by Geoff Gascoyne and features Stan Sulzmann on tenor saxophone.
Tonight’s performance will feature contemporary works and arrangements from Tara and Emma’s past recordings, as well as new compositions.
