tara – “my heathen whore”

tara is an independent artist from Dublin, and her new single “My Heathen Whore”, out August 12, she recorded it entirely in her tiny bedroom with just a laptop, mic, and interface, which makes the end result even more impressive. It’s raw and honest about knowing this wasn’t built in a polished studio. It’s her vision, start to finish.

The song digs into unsettling territory, love, obsession, and violence, but not in a shock for shock’s sake way. tara talks about using the track as a way to process feelings of alienation and anger, turning them into a narrative about an imagined killer. It’s dark, but it’s also thoughtful, forcing you to sit with discomfort rather than just look away.

Live, the song has already proven itself. Her recent show at The Sound House in Dublin got a great reaction, and you can tell this release is a step she’s ready for. If you’re into artists who push themselves creatively and aren’t afraid to tackle heavy themes, keep an eye on tara. Follow tara on socials to see what’s next this year.
