Tara had been dreaming of performing with Celtic Woman for a long time. When she performed the harp in the band during the Celtic Woman: Destiny special / DVD, she looked longingly at the stage, hoping that one day it would be her up there with those girls.

On August 16, 2016, Tara's dream came true!

Here's some information about Tara's first tour with Celtic Woman on their tour to South Africa.

Tara's Role

Tara opened the show with Terloc's Dream (Destiny) as Mairead Nesbitt did earlier in the Destiny Tour.

... I think they should have renamed it #TarasDream for the show, but that's just my opinion ;)

Tara had 2 other solos:
  • Across the World
  • Skyrim

In this tour, Tara only played violin. In the Celtic Woman: Voices of Angels tour, she played harp as well.

Tara wore 2 dresses:
  • A purple one
  • A blue one
