Támar (b. Ashley Támar Davis) is an R&B singer who came to prominence through the singer Prince. She sang the co-lead vocals on the song "Beautiful, Loved and Blessed" from Prince's album 3121 and on backup vocals throughout the album.

Milk & Honey

Her own album was originally set to be released on May 5, 2006, but went through a few delays. June 13 was a rumored date as well. As of June, 2006, the album is now listed with a projected release date of August 29. Originally to be titled Beautiful, Loved and Blessed, the album has apparently been renamed after another track, Milk & Honey. Judging by some of the song titles, there appears to be significant input by Prince.

Recent activities

In March, 2006, Támar was supported by Prince with an ensemble of session musicans and performed a number of small club concerts in Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Atlanta and Miami to promote her upcoming album. The concerts included cuts from her Milk & Honey album, as well as cover versions of such artists as Mary J. Blige and Aretha Franklin. Prince fans were also treated to him performing less familiar tunes during her costume changes, including "Anotherloverholenyohead", "Partyman" and "Calhoun Square" (from Crystal Ball. Also of interest was the full compliment doing a cover of Michael Jackson's "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" with Prince playing the synthesiser solo from the original recording on the guitar. The concerts were approx. 90 minutes in length.
