There are singers who interpret songs as if they're performing them on an award show- all very assertive and oratorical. Of course, there's absolutely nothing wrong with this approach. It's produced a wealth of show-stopping tunes. But it's not Tara La'Dell's way. Listen to any of her renditions on New Way Out and you'll feel you've drifted into a private conversation, one in which she's sharing her joys, dreams and anxieties only with you.

Hey! I haven't talk to you in 4ever! How are things? I've been sooo busy lately with some many things going on. I've got to get up there soon! Hopefully in time for your show!! I'll call you soon!! Luv & miss you!!!!
I would LOVE to come to your show. I hope it works out to where Rick can be off and we can come. We will miss you guys on Thanksgiving. I am going to cook extra to take to your parents. I offered for them to go with us to my mom's but your mom said she was still ordered to stay in the bed right now.
Hey by the way LOVEEEEE your default pic u look gorgeous! and i am not really sure but when i find out what i want i will surely let u know! Give rudy a BIG kiss for me!<3 you guys!
I have a new tune on my other myspace called 'Jazzy Blue' ~
This is the first time I've gotten to record within my brand spanking new ~ totally optimized Ashram / Asylum ~ & I must say with this updated digital recording facility & some new axes to grind ~ it is truly a luxury at it's finest ~ at least it is for me me me !!!!! So here it is ~ just a rhythm track I'd made over the last couple of days ~ in order to acclimate myself with all the new toys I now have at my disposal . . . I'll be writing lots of new lyrics as well as new music ~ for both of my upcoming projects ~ the follow-up to my debut CD now available on Moiko Records ~ it's a new concept album I've been (Ben) working on for over a year & a half ~ as well as the awesome new version of The Altruistic Messiah's latest touring band ~ a line up consisting of life long friends & a few of the most amazingly talented new individuals I have just recently had the honor to become associated with ! I am always wishing each & every one of you the very best ~ & this continues to be the primary focus of any & all communication between us as individuals ~ it is my belief that this concern is fundamental in the advancement of humanity ~ & that this is the reason we are alive ~ that this is what we are living for ~ as human nature must transcend into something greater than it ever has been (Ben) ~ as every single one of us collectively evolve into everything we are destined to realize ~ & we must leave no man or woman behind ~ STOP WAR ~ I know I go way off the beat & path often ~ but I love everyone !!!!!! Peace, Ben P.S. PLease don't forget to attend my CD Release Party at the Rainbow Bar & Grill on the Sunset Strip ~ It starts at 3:00 P.M. November 1st & of course YOU ARE INVITED !
