Taryn Manning

awesome, DJ, music, pop, talent, Taryn Manning

It’s been a little while since I’ve written one of these. Now that it’s finally starting to get warmer outside (is it really though?), it’s nice to listen to some upbeat tempo kind of stuff. Taryn Manning is a muscian, but also a little bit of a jack of all trades. Singer/Actress/DJ/Designer/all-round cool chick.

She more or less came on the acting scene when she had a spot on Boston Public (remember that show? It was awesome!), and you might remember her from the films 8 Mile or Crossroads (*cough*), and most recently on the TV series Hawaii 5-o.

On the music side of things, she came out in the early 2000s with a band called Boomkat, comprised of herself and her brother. They released two albums, and now Taryn is going solo. She has a new single entitled ‘Turn it up!’. It’s definitely, ‘the roll down your windows and crank the volume’ kind of a song. When we’ll be able to roll down our windows and enjoy the sunshine in Calgary, though, is another question!

The single ‘Turn it up!’ is currently available as a free download off her website. Grab it while it’s hot folks!

Finally, she is most definitely on Twitter. She’s a sweetheart, give her a follow! @tarynmanning
