Biography
Tara Simon moved to New York City at the age of 18 where she set firmly on Broadway at the audition for Fame and won the role of Serena Katz. Fame toured Europe, and Tara found herself journeying through several countries.
After touring Europe, Tara attended Palm Beach Atlantic University, where she gained her Bachelor of Arts in Music and was given the opportunity to expand her knowledge of theater and dance, as well as explore an eclectic selection of choral genres.
In 2012 Tara became widely know as she made it to the top 24 vocalists on the X Factor Season 2. After her first audition for the celebrity judges, Simon Cowell said with a smile, “I believe we’ve only scratched the surface of what you’re capable of.” Most recently, Tara had her hit single and music video “Walk Away” selected by producers at Pulse Music.
Tara is not only a fierce artist but she is also the Director of Music & Performing Arts at her company, Tara Simon Studios in Atlanta. She has been coaching children and adults in all areas of the performing arts for more than ten years. Several of her students have landed principal and supporting roles in independent films, television and theatrical productions as well as tours with national recording artists.
