Described by the New York Times as having “a voice that can fill 3 stadiums and the moves of Tina Turner”, Davis returns to Australia for the first time since her mesmerising performances out front of The New Power Generation in 2018.

With the official release of her shelved ‘Milk & Honey’ album due in 2019 Ms. Davis is set to hit the road for a series of showcase performances throughout the USA, Europe and Asia-Pacific.

Tamar cultivated her talent at Houston’s High School for the Performing and Visual Arts before moving to Los Angeles to study music at the University of Southern California. She graduated not only with classical training and a Bachelor of Music degree, but also with the ability to sing in French, Italian, German, and Swahili.

“In an age of gimmicks and over processed sounds, the nostalgic idea of authentic vocals and magnetic stage presence seems un-imaginable. But there’s power in experiencing Grammy-nominated artist Tamar Davis: reminiscent of funk, soul, rock and R&B. She evinces passion meeting entertainment through her authentic, high-energy performances that makes her “Prince’s favorite singer” – Washington Post
