Hi, I’m Tara Dillon, a passionate vocalist with a background in vocal performance, songwriting, and contemporary dance. Having trained extensively and performed across Ireland, the UK, France, and Portugal, I love sharing my voice and connecting with audiences, whether on stage, in the studio, or on the street. I’m equally comfortable as a lead singer or backing vocalist and enjoy collaborating with fellow musicians and artists. I’m also experienced in music facilitation and teaching, having worked with various groups and individuals in vibrant settings. Outside of singing, I play several instruments and have a keen interest in music production software. I’m always eager to bring energy and creativity to every project I undertake.
