The Performer

In addition to being an expert educator, Tamara is also an accomplished performing vocalist. Considering herself a three-dimensional singer she has the ability to seamlessly sing any CCM (contemporary commercial music) style. After graduating in 2012 with a Bachelor of Music from the Queensland Conservatorium of Music, Tamara has developed her own unique style and sound from her many influences and experiences as a performing artist. 

 

Tamara has forged a musical career that is already well established at corporate functions and both private and public events. Performance highlights include appearances at the The Plaza Hotel, Feinstein's/54 Below, Birdland, The Brisbane Jazz Club and Brisbane City Hall. Tamara was one of the featured vocal jazz artists in the 2010 Brisbane Festival and the 2012 and 2013 Broadbeach Jazz Festival. In addition, she has been the featured artist for QPAC Green Jam event several times from 2011 to 2014. In May 2014 Tamara created the PINK SUNSET jazz charity event to raise funding for Breast and Bowel Cancer research and raised over $1000 worth of donations. The event was so successful it was held again in 2015.

​

Tamara was a featured artist at the acclaimed New York Jazz Club Birdland at the beginning of 2016. She has performed internationally at the No Black Tie jazz club in Malaysia, Fete De La Musique festival in Paris and on Royal Street in New Orleans. In 2015, Tamara performed as a contestant on the hit TV show The Voice Australia, as well as touring to Turkey in August to perform at the world premiere of The Gallipoli Symphony in Istanbul. During this tour the ensemble continued on to perform at ANZAC Cove at Gallipoli for the 100 year anniversary of the battle of Lone Pine.
