Tamara (Tami) Neilson is a Canadian-born, New Zealand-based country & soul singer/songwriter. Her album ‘Don’t Be Afraid’ debuted at No. 1 on the New Zealand Music Charts, and her previous release ‘Dynamite!’ was listed in The Guardian as one of the top ten country albums of the year for 2014. She grew up as a member of The Neilsons (see below), performing with her parents and two brothers across North America, and continues to co-write much of her work with brother Joshua ‘Jay’ Neilson, who shared her Silver Scroll win with her as well as producing her first three albums.
