Singer and multi-instrumentalist Tara Nevins started her musical career with the folk-rock band Donna the Buffalo. As one of the group's primary singers and songwriters, she developed her rich, mellow singing voice and socially conscious songwriting over the group's five albums. Her acoustic guitar, accordion, and fiddle playing also gave Donna the Buffalo an eclectic, rustic flair, and though the group's touring and recording schedule kept Nevins busy, she made time to record her solo debut. 1999's Mule to Ride featured the earthy singing and playing for which Nevins is renowned in folk-rock circles. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi
