This evening the club are excited to feature celebrated jazz harpist and vocalist Tara Minton as she presents her new album, “The Devil Invites You To Dance”.
Written in México City in July 2023, the suite captures a soul’s journey through the Underworld of shadows and desire. Diving deep into Aztec mythology and Latin American dance traditions, Tara and her band lead the listener through a dark and joyous exploration of what it means to be human. Beyond “should” and “shouldn’t” is the place where we meet ourselves.
In July 2023, with the help of “Asociaión Latinoamericana Del Arpa” Tara spent two weeks in Coyoacán to compose a new suite of music, “The Devil Invites You To Dance.” The music is a marriage between Latin American and British jazz cultures, exploring Méxican mythology, joy, self expression and desire. Tara returned to México City in October 2025 to present the record in concert at Foro del Tejedor, and the album is scheduled for release in 2026.
