Tara Lett was born to humanitarian parents in Edmonton, Alberta. Her parent’s charitable work took the family all over the world; from living in the multicultural metropolis of Montreal, to small rural villages in Africa. One thing was always sure however, wherever Tara found herself in the world, you could always find her singing! As a girl she sung in choirs, churches, restaurants and always around the house! Her debut performance as a soloist was at a Vancouver eatery at the tender age of 7 years old.
Tara attended high school in northern BC and moved to Vancouver to work with legend performer Ray Carroll of “The Platters†(The Great Pretender, Smoke Gets in your Eyes and former manager of Michael Buble) Under Ray’s Instruction, Tara gained precious performance experience and quickly became one of his most promising protégés.Within the year Tara was discovered after answering an add in a Local newspaper for an all girl pop group. She was quickly offered a position in the group the "G-Force Girls†and began recording and playing all over Canada and the United States. The “G Force Girls†played such gigs as The Venetian Hotel Club "Venus", and headlining "Indy Week" in Toronto. Jericho Green, manager of G-Force Girls and Siameze still fondly remembers working with Tara.“Tara just stood out to me right away.She is an artist that has the street smarts, work ethic and talent to make a career for herself as a solo artist in Canada.â€

Twincity was chosen to open for critically acclaimed Holly McNarland (Universal) and developed a strong local following in the Vancouver club scene. With all this going on Tara decided to enroll with the Vancouver Community College music program. She immersed herself in piano and guitar lessons to solidify her songwriting and playing abilities and studied theory, ear training, rhythm studies and music history.Armed with a strong foundation in principles of music in a variety of instruments, Tara decided she was ready to begin recording her first solo album and has teamed up with producer/songwriter Dave Pickell (Kelly Rowland, Lara Fabian, Robbie Robertson) to write her debut album.Tara’s playful debut album is funky, fun and soulfully written.
