Tamara Lewis

Tamara Lewis, singer/songwriter out of Seattle, WA, provides a mix of contemporary songs that blend folk, country, and blues.
She has been most influenced by Alison Kraus, Patsy Cline, and Nanci Griffith. Tamara’s incisive poetry and pure sound can best be described as “passionate folk.”

To quote Jennifer Layton from Indie-music.com, “Her voice is flawless, crystalline and heavenly.” and “She could sing the directions off a box of Pop Tarts and I’d download it.”

Tamara’s songwriting is inspired by conversations with friends, her 20-year career as a psychotherapist and from a surprisingly rich source: her survival of over a decade-long serious illness, which turns out to resonate deeply with many listeners who have also struggled over long periods of time. She mines these deep shafts and writes bravely and beautifully about life’ painful truths and delivers them with heartrending vulnerability. Then she brings listeners back to safety with songs that are deeply comforting or delightfully clever and with a stage presence that is incandescent, engaging and funny.

Tamara wants people to feel like she is singing their life stories and helping them to know that they are not alone. And she wants everyone to leave a show having laughed.
