WHO GOD BLESS NO MAN CURSE

About Me

Recording artiste Amara, formerly known as "Moiya" from www.myspace.com/moiyamusic, is back with a sexy new name, but still keeping that down to earth, cute, fun, sexy and vybzy nature you loved in the days of "moiya".

"Unfortunatly, the www.myspace.com/moiyamusic account was recently hacked, allong with the email account associated with it, and all passwords were changed, leaving me with absolutly NO access to it since about mid-October..." Amara tells. "This took place almost immediatly after I terminated my managment agreement with "Rockwildaz.com", so I didn't even have any opportunity to inform my freinds or contacts about the managment and name changes. To make matters worse, this 'hacker' put up a comment claiming that they were indeed the real Moiya and all other profiles were fake, " she explains, "this has made it all the more difficult for me to regain the trust of my former contacts and friends"

Although I recently regained access to the moiyamusic account, it's still hard explaining the name change, hacking and managment changes to all the people who know me as "Moiya"

She says despite this minor set-back, her fans and well-wishers can be expecting to see and hear much more of her in the future.


Tamara “Amara” Mitchell was born in Sydney, Australia on the 21st of May 1987, to a musician father and a former singer of a mother. At the age of four, she recorded her first song, a child’s story about pollution and the environment.

As she progressed through Australian school, she auditioned and was accepted into the Australian National Youth Choir, where she received, for a short time, voice training.

At the age of 12 she began Shalvey High School, where she did two years of dance, drama, and music classes.

At the age of 13, her mother migrated to Jamaica taking both Amara and her sister Jody with her. When she arrived in Jamaica she was living in St Ann’s Bay, and attending high school at Ocho Rios High School. Where she continued her studies in music theory, and joined the school band so she could continue practicing her singing.

After a scout saw her receiving numerous awards at her valedictory service, the scout offered her a fully paid scholarship to Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performing Arts, which she willingly accepted; and although she only spent a year at the college, it benefitted her immensely.

While she was still at Edna Manley College, she began singing backup for Peter Lloyd, who in turn introduced her to some producers such as, Rorey Baker, Sly and Robbie, Dean Fraser and “Snocone”. Although she only recorded one song for “Snocone”, which was not released, the experience in studio helped her to grow as an artiste.

She also linked with a producer and Dj, out of Mandeville named Dj Chris, of Zodiac music, who recorded and released her first single “Gimmi what you got” which is stillplaying on radio stations.


She eventually linked with Mario C, at Trinity 7 records, where she is now based, and recording new singles.
