I’m delighted to announce my new single is now available!!! It’s called ‘Our New Horizon’ and was originally written about the state of the economy, the country … and much of the world really. It’s about taking a stand against the powers that be and maintaining one’s dignity and self belief. United we stand, divided we fall. But recently the lyrics have become more meaningful to me on a personal level and so it feels appropriate to release this as the first single from the next album (yet to be christened! Still looking for inspiration!) It’s release today sees the sun beating down outside. Spring is really taking a wee break and allowing us a sneak preview of Summer! Teasing us with thoughts of long, warm, sunny days! It all feels very good and positive. Light. Glorious light.
Thanks as always for your very appreciated support, love and light to you all,
Tara

Do you believe that the arts are fundamental to Ireland’s social and economic wellbeing? I do!
My friend Peter Daly is doing tremendous work for the arts, so I want to help spread the message about his national campaign for the arts here on my site.

It’s been a while since I checked in, so here’s a little update on what I’ve been up to.
Just back from Guernsey where I was doing the show ‘Seven Deadly Sins, Four Sinners‘ at The Beau Sejour Theatre. I did this show last year in Barbados with Sue Holderness (‘Marylene’ in Only Fools & Horses), Sarah Crowe (‘Laura’ Four Weddings & A Funeral) and Belinda Lang (‘Bill’ 2.4 Children) and this time Belinda and I were joined by Eva Pope (‘Tanya Pooley’ Coronation Street / ‘Rachel Mason’ Waterloo Road) and Tracey Childs (‘Linda’ Born & Raised). It was so lovely to meet these wonderful ladies. We had a lot of fun. We had some time to see a bit of Guernsey – a really interesting and beautiful place – and luckily Karen was on hand to be tour guide and hostess extraordinaire. And we four and our director Marc Sinden managed to pop in for a chat with Jim Cathcart at BBC Guernsey.
All in all it was a great trip!
Talk to you again soon,
Tara xx

Last week I was invited to attend the launch of the Hotpress yearbook. I joined friends like Sharon Corr, Billy Farrell, Keith Duffy and many others for a wonderful evening.
I’m back in studio in London this week recording with Davey MacManus for his new album. After spending the last few months rehearsing and acting it’s great to be back in studio again. I’m really looking forward to doing some of my own music soon too.

A few weeks ago I was walking home from A Christmas Carol and Dublin city looked so pretty in the snow, so I took out my camera and made this little video on my walk home. Hope you like it
