"These days, Elliott can be found wowing audiences as part of the power trio Tara Elliott and The Red Velvets, a down-and-dirty combo whose raw sound and red-hot energy recall the days when trash rockers like the New York Dolls and their musical offspring prowled the streets of New York City." -Alex Biese, Associate Producer of Asbury Park Press Metromix Jersey Shore
"With a booming voice and a solid rocking/punk band behind her she kicked ass! She was one part Meat Loaf, one part Romeo Void, one part Janis Joplin, and one part Iggy Pop. She's definitely someone to keep an eye on."-The Writing World of Gary Wein, music journalist and playwright.
Tara Elliott and The Red Velvets is a Garage/Punk Blues power trio whose sound can be described as equal parts retro and contemporary, with legendary influences ranging from Big Brother and the Holding Company, John Lennon, Muddy Waters, Iggy Pop and the Stooges, The Velvet Underground to The White Stripes. A common thread in this sound is the passion of the blues and the desire to rock.
After years of singing delta blues n' paying her dues, Tara discovered her truth: her lust for punk rock. The moment she first listened to Iggy Pop and the Stooges' classic “I Wanna Be Your Dog”, Tara became intrigued and craved a complete musical transformation. Tara's songwriting took a 180 degree spin, igniting the blues, punk and classic rock into her own explosive expression.
As a singer, songwriter and guitarist, Tara found an accompaniment to share her vision, The Red Velvets, consisting of: Mr. Jeffery Phillips aka Zee Mighty Jeffers on lead bass (wearing titanium prosthetic legs, owner of Dome Rehearsal Studio) and Mr. Werner Wilding on drums (a straight-off-the-boat Austrian, perfectionist, actor and philosopher).
Since Tara Elliott and The Red Velvets birthed, they have rocked NJ's: Seaside Music Festival, Asbury Park’s Wave Gathering 2009 Music Festival, The Saint, Asbury Lanes, Bar Anticipation, The Clash Bar, Chubby's, Brighton Bar, The Lamp Post, NYC's: Arlene's Grocery, Otto's Shrunken Head (as the house band), Trash Bar (opened for The Ramones producer Daniel Rey), The R- Bar, Connolly's Klub 45, Bar Matchless, Don Pedro's, CORIO: Home of the Burlesque!, The Shrine And more...
Enjoy Tara Elliott and The Red Velvets' music for sound and soul, yet listen for truth and emotion.
