Party: TARA McDONALD & JP CANDELA

Tara Jane McDonald is an English songwriter and vocalist widely recognised for a string of crossover hits both internationally and in the UK. Tara achieved success working with Armand Van Helden and co-writing with Axwell on the chart hits ‘My My My’ and ‘Feel The Vibe’. Both these projects debuted at #1 in the club charts, before peaking in the UK sales charts at #12 and #16 respectively. She has also collaborated with Todd Terry co writing ‘Get Down’ and with David Guetta co writing ‘Delirious’ and ‘You Are Not Alone’. ‘Delirious’ – which featured on the ‘Pop Life’ LP’ – was one the most heavily played records on European radio throughout 2008.

McDonald regularly tours the international club circuit with her schedule taking her throughout Europe and on to Australia, Russia, Dubai, U.S.A, China, Egypt and Jordan. Her 2009 performance at Space in Ibiza, within a weekly residency with Hed Kandi and 2010 at Es Paradise, Ibiza Rocks bar and her "Sunset Sessions" at Mambo & Savannah beach bar.

McDonald hosts her own dance music radio show called "I Like This Beat" (formerly called "Shut Up & Dance") which is a one hour show currently syndicated in 39 countries and 42 stations across the world and on dance music stations and is also a podcast available as a free download through iTunes worldwide.

At the start of 2012 Tara worked as assistant vocal coach on the first series of the TV show The Voice in Belgium alongside the French pop star Quentin Mosimann, the winner of this series Roberto Bellarosa was from their team and went on to sign a recording contract with Sony records.

McDonald signed a two album deal with Mercury/Universal in 2012 and her debut album will be released in 2013.

Contrary to all expectations, the Queen of the Dance, Tara McDonald and the platinum selling Queen of R&B French-Canadian, Zaho, who won several Awards, join together for a collaboration and have released in August 2013, a single called "Shooting Star".

The track is sung in English and in French. This unexpected collaboration has quickly been critically acclaimed for its artistic originality. This new single serves both as promotion for the singer, for an album planned at the end of 2013 and also for the republication of Zaho's album "Contagieuse", planned for October 9 this year.
