Tara Minton is an Australian born harpist, vocalist and composer. She is proudly endorsed by Camac Harps and holds a master's degree in jazz performance from The Guildhall School of Music and Drama. Sought after as both a harpist and vocalist, Tara has worked with Björk, Tom Walker, ESKA, Stan Sulzmann, Geoff Gascoyne and the Australian World Orchestra. She leads her own original project as a harpist/vocalist and sings with ?The Blues and Roots Ensemble? - a London based nine-piece band and charity celebrating the music of Charles Mingus.
In 2020 Tara released her critically acclaimed album ?Please Do Not Ignore The Mermaid? exploring themes of climate change and mer-myth. She consolidated the album's success with an intimate duo album released in January 2022 - ?Two For The Road? with bassist Ed Babar. The album was produced by Geoff Gascoyne and features Stan Sulzmann on tenor saxophone. This Summer Tara made her Ronnie Scott's headline debut, and her BBC Proms debut at the Royal Albert Hall with the Australian World Orchestra.
Tara is a passionate music educator and advocate for the harp in jazz and improvised music. When not playing or teaching, Tara co-hosts 'The Jazz Podcast' with saxophonist Rob Cope, which was recently nominated for a Parliamentary Jazz Award.
