Following the phenomenal rise of the first single “All of Me”, BlackByrd has delivered the goods with a brand new album that has the industry abuzz with excitement. Released on 15 October 2012, the long awaited, 14 track new album Strong brings original and thought provoking pop to their multitudes of fans.
Having recently signed a record deal with major record label EMI MUSIC, the dynamic trio has been getting cosy with the charts thanks to their inspired and stirring hit single.
The three dynamic young Capetonians that make up BlackByrd; Tarryn Lamb, Samantha Heldsinger and Tamsyn Maker, have spent the past three years working towards this moment when they can fully showcase their talent for the world to see. Produced by music-industry veteran Mike Fuller, the 14 track debut album Strong is an amazing collection of work, filled with real emotion, powerful lyrics and a strong level of genuine spirituality that’s as rare as their combined pool of talent.
“We’ve grown together as a group,” Heldsinger adds. “Our sound has evolved too.” “All Of Me” as well as all the tracks that make up their stellar debut are weighted in real content and messages that everyone who hears will share a genuine affinity towards.
Taking their name from the classic Beatles track, BlackByrd are in the process of turning adult-contemporary pop convention on its head, thanks to Lamb’s new-found talent as a critical songwriter. “We’ve all grown, as people and entertainers,” Lamb says. “We’re artists now, and loving every minute.”
“BlackByrd lives through the songs we write,” Lamb says. “Our music, and how we grow it from here, comes from a collective openness and willingness to be real. It’s important that what people hear in a track like “All Of Me” reflects who we are as people.” What you hear on Strong is brutal honestly, raw emotion and an energy that’s profound.
Each time BlackByrd sing the world gets a little bit smaller, while their fan base swells. Music with integrity is rare, but when these three beautiful and vivacious women do it they steal hearts and charts at every opportunity.
An exciting, life-changing voyage that in its infancy has already seen a groundswell of support for the three warm, engaging, fun-loving and fetching threesome. Their musical crusade now well underway, BlackByrd’s mission “to take on the world!” as Maker says, has truly begun!
