AntaraTunes

Antara is a singer-songwriter from Flagstaff, Arizona and Santa Barbara, California. Antara's sound comes from a type of americana music from the CA central coast she coined as “Calimericana” which blends folk, pop and a touch of country. Antara's music is characterized by acoustic instrumentation layered with harmonies that support vivid, emotion-driven lyrics. Antara is a “veteran” songwriter who recorded four albums of original music with former duo partner of 10 years, Delilah (1997-2007). The duo had sync placement success on the TV shows Party of Five and Joan of Arcadia and were voted “Best Santa Barbara Band” five years in a row. Antara and Delilah were an acoustic trio with Jim Messina for many years and helped him lead his songwriters workshops. In 2024 Antara returned to the studio to record new songs inspired by love, family, the pandemic, politics and humor. She has begun performing again and is supported by Robbie Rondou on guitar and harmonies.
