About
The dramatic intensity of Tamar-kali's music defies any traditional genre. Borne from her
seemingly endless well of ingenuity it enchants you with its melody, while delivering a
swift kick to the gut with its incisive emotional core.
As a composer and vocalist she has defied boundaries and blended styles to craft her own unique sound. Her eclectic influences allow her to lead a raucous 5 piece rock band, an all female experimental string and voice group - Psychochamber Ensemble or take the torch song tradition to a new level with her Pseudoacoustic project.
The uninitiated may have discovered Tamar-kali when she appeared in James Spooner's award-winning Afro-Punk documentary, with clips of her incendiary performances putting the world on notice to her unsung talent.
Tamar-kali’s voice and vision has been enjoyed by international audiences at Festivals such as the Peiferias Festival - Spain, Sons D'hiver - Paris and Omiala: A Festival of New Black Culture at Toronto's Harbourfront Centre as well as NYC venues Joe's Pub, HarlemStage, Lincoln Center Out of Doors and Central Park Summerstage. Her eclectic sound and versatility has allowed her to share stages with a diverse list of artists from Paramore, John Legend, and Cassandra Wilson to Me'shell Ndegeocello and Roy Ayers.
