‘64 Women’ is the highly anticipated EP from the emergent L.Al. power trio Tarah Who?.
Band leader Tarah G. Carpenter wanted to release the EP on March 8, which fell on International Women’s Day in deference to the 64 women who were incarcerated with her at the downtown L.A. immigration jail on November 2016.
From the intense and tragic terrorist attack theme single “Numb Killer” to the betrayal, relationship song “Hurt” a la PJ Harvey. Tarah Who? will take one on a very emotional and energetic ride as this authentic, raw, rock, will make you want to get up and mosh like we are still living the 90s.
"I wrote this song a few years ago after a friendship had ended. Interestingly enough it was and felt like a break up even though this was never a love relationship in this sense. We were friends. We spent a lot of times on the road sharing stories and opening up, like good friends do.. We had a plan. We were going to be a team. Then one day he emailed me saying that he could no longer be friends, thank you for taking me on this journey: “I hope you are not mad”. Never heard from him again." Say'sTarah
Tarah Who? Well, “she” equals “they,” and “they’re” a band masterminded by grunge-punk sage Tarah Carpenter, a firebrand frontwoman who channels explosive emotionality into rousing anthems.
Tarah Who? recalls 1990s alt-rock and grunge’s tradition of balancing integrity with tuneful songcraft. Entries in the Tarah Who? oeuvre sit nicely alongside Alanis Morissette, Foo fighters, The Distillers, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Motorhead.
Tarah Who? is a power trio in every sense of the phrase, bonded together by telepathic musical interplay and profound interpersonal connections.
In addition to Tarah, the three-piece band also features bassist/backing vocalist Joey Southern, and drummer/backing vocalist Coralie Hervé. Previously, Tarah Who? has released two full-lengths, two EPs, and one single of raw punky rock n’ roll.
It’s a remarkable feat for an unsigned band to make such waves in the biz, but Tarah Who?’s incendiary live shows and snarling sing-alongs are hard to ignore. Even alt-pop goddess Alanis Morissette’s guitarist Jason Orme has given a big stamp approval to the group, co-producing and playing guitar alongside Tarah on the recently released EP, ‘Half Middle Child Syndrome’
