About Tara Flanagan

Tara Flanagan is an 18 year old singer/songwriter  hailing from Poole, Dorset in the South West of England. She has been singing since the age of 6. This passion developed into her regularly participating in shows, musical events and singing competitions.  She began song writing when she was 13, accompanying herself on guitar and piano.

Tara started doing ballet, tap and modern at age 4 at The Carrington Hollywood Academy of Dance and at age 13, she joined Stagewise School for the Performing Arts where she attended twice weekly workshops in singing, acting and dancing. She has been involved in different stage productions playing the lead role of Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz; the role of Belle in a school musical Beauty and the Beast; Helena in Shakepeare's Midsummer Night's Dream and in July this year, she played the role of Scaramouche in the musical We Will Rock You. 

Although Tara enjoys musical theatre and acting, her passion is in singing and song writing and her drive is to become successful as a solo artist.

Tara has been a Grand Finalist in various singing competitions such as StarSensations, Talentcall and the worldwide StarNow Music Immersive competition. Back in January of this year, she beat thousands of applicants and reached the Grand Final of the National singing competition, Open Mic UK, performing her new material at the NEC Birmingham and also got awarded the Future Music Management award.  Early this year, she also won the Hope FM Rising Star award.

This year Tara has recorded her debut EP at River Studios in Southampton. The five track EP includes electro-pop influences all songs written by Tara herself and produced at River Studios by two amazing music producers; Gareth Henderson and Stuart Mannell.   Sunday 28th June was the official launch night of her debut single RUN RUN RUN which took place at Mr Kyps in Poole, Dorset, followed by its release on 29th June 2015.
