Taylor Swift by Rachel Makena
"Rachel performed as Taylor swift for our pride event in July 2025. She was outstanding! Her first 25 mins was acoustic and the second was with backing tracks. She has a great voice and is a great talent. She kept the crowd happy and engaged… even in the pouring down rain. She is very professional and kept in touch with us regularly in the run up to the event. She also arrived in plenty of time for her set. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Rachel again. Thanks for contributing to a wonderful day! (10 / 10)"

Cure For Jealousy
A perfectly polished storyteller in the literal sense, Dar.Ra goes for this wild swing of ‘80s dance-rock infused with edge on the stomping sweetness of “Cure For Jealousy.”
The track combines a range of periods and influences, ensuring the sound works seamlessly as a cohesive, concise whole.
Volume is a given; he brings it, and it is a physical sound, like the way blood rushes through the ears with the first few traces of jealousy. Looking through his track record, he’s managed to touch upon every iteration of dance and rock within the last forty years, and has done it well.
Outside of the music, he’s the author of two books, which also inform the character studies that he graces with his sound. It is catchy, addictive, and liberating stuff, the sort of thing that the music world needs now – something unique, experimental yet accessible, and overflowing with ideas.
Sonically, Dar.Ra’s sound draws on the revivalist traditions of DFA Records, specifically on LCD Sound-System’s earnest pleas and search for meaning.
Like James Murphy, Dar.Ra does have a love for the aesthetics of just a gigantic canvas, letting the whole arrangement feel enormous. On the classic side, the insistent bass has an ESG quality, with the groove absolutely dominating.
It is easy to get intoxicated by the atmosphere, and the vocals further sell this idea of breaking free from this impairment.
The tautness of the groove even delves into Parliament’s most unhinged experiments, as the track sparkles with endless creativity. For all these reference points, Dar.Ra continues his fine tradition of marching to the beat of a different drummer, going for this life-affirming, soulful stance.
The stormy mix of keyboards and the tight rhythm section work their magic.
Before his voice enters the equation, the mood is already set. When he takes center stage, the song transforms into an inner turmoil.
He’s conflicted, and the verses cascade downwards reflecting exactly that. It stuns, and the track’s length makes the atmosphere almost psychedelic. Of course, this is what good dance music is meant to embody – endless expanses, endless possibilities. There is a reason so many dance-floors adhere to that sixto-seven-minute mark, even exceeding it when necessary. The band's interplay feels spirited, as if possessed, and this is what carries it all the way to the finale: a contemplative commotion.
“Cure For Jealousy” shows that Dar.Ra is what music needs right now – a sound that draws and builds on the past while pointing a way forward, in a purely hedonistic, funk/dance/punk flavour."
