With the release of her full length debut, a busy touring schedule, and a growing arsenal of well-crafted and moving songs, newly based Chicago singer-songwriter Tamara Bedricky is bestowing a glimpse of her musical power. She has received local and national acclaim for her captivating voice and excellent songwriting, landing song placement in several national television shows and air time on radio stations across the country. Paving her way into the local, national, and college music scenes with a consistent touring schedule, she’s won over fans and peers alike with her live performances and demanding sound. Throughout her career, Tamara has performed in New York’s Central Park alongside Michelle Branch, was chosen as of five up-and-coming female artists in the National Pantene Pro-Voice music competition, and came full circle with a performance at the Detroit Music Awards.
The Detroit native first picked up the guitar at the age of 15 while living in Nashville, finding solace in music as she struggled to adapt to new surroundings. "Music has always been the one thing that I could count on to help me deal with change," Tamara explains. It was in Nashville where she studied guitar and started performing at open mics. Inspired by artists such as Ryan Adams, Eric Clapton, and Bonnie Raitt, Tamara began to develop her own melodies and lyrics fueled by an array of emotions related to heartache, love, life and detachment. “Many of my songs move away from current musical trends and highlight what's important - the marriage of music and lyrics," she explains.

"Through These Eyes" is Tamara’s debut album, a collection of 11 songs inspired by events in her life and recorded with the help of producer and guitarist Marlon Young (Dave Mathews, Kid Rock) and Detroit Producer/Drummer extraordinaire Danny Cox. The album showcases her sweet yet raw and powerful vocal ability, and demonstrates significant growth and maturity for the young songwriter.
