WHASINGTON, DC (www.icon-omnimedia.com) - Beginning in October, the Tarralyn Ramsey – Born to Diva, Honors The Divas show will visit several cities nationwide. Last year the final vote was cast and
America had spoken-Tarralyn Ramsey emerged as the first winner of the VH1 Born To Diva competition. After a hectic promotional tour and performances across the United States and Canada Tarralyn has decided to share another aspect of her phenomenal vocal abilities. This production will allow this dynamic talent the opportunity to bring her heart and soul to the audience with her amazing voice that has earned her the right to be called a diva. This golden-layered belter sings the classics, brings her style to the standards, scats the jazz and simply raises the roof.
During this performance Tarralyn will take audiences on a musical journey that only a true diva can share. The 45 minute set features the music of
Sarah Vaughn, Aretha Franklin, Whitney
Houston as well as songs from Tarralyn's
Casablanca Records release, TARRALYN. Additional dates are available in various markets. Call Icon Omnimedia at 202-889-2494 for more information on bringing the voice that has been compared to Whitney
Houston to your area.
The tour is scheduled to visit Atlanta, Charlotte, Chicago, Dallas, Detroit, Houston, New York, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C.
About Tarralyn Ramsey
For 22-year old Tarralyn Ramsey – the first artist signed to Tommy Mottola's Casablanca/Universal Records label, her first prize for winning the VH1 "Born To Diva" competition – dreams are the stuff of everyday life: Love, faith, understanding, getting along in the world on your own. Tarralyn's independent spirit arrives at a time when the world is reaching out for honesty and signs of soulful sincerity.
Ironically, the women who've been singled out as today's pop music divas, from Mahalia and Aretha and Whitney, to Mariah and Celine – all of whom count among Tarralyn's influences –earned their titles because of the deep and lasting personal bonds they established with their audiences, in contrast to the distant celebrity of the original divas more than a century ago.
